What is 10.64 percent of 1601.6 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 1601.6 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 1601.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1601.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.64% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.64%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1601.6=100%
2) x=10.64%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
1601.6/x=100%/10.64%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 10.64% of 1601.6

1601.6/x=100/10.64
(1601.6/x)*x=(100/10.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1601.6=9.3984962406015*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.3984962406015) to get x
1601.6/9.3984962406015=x
170.41024=x
x=170.41024

now we have:
10.64% of 1601.6=170.41024
