What is 100.79 percent of 115.97 - 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 115.97 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 115.97 is 100%, so we can write it down as 115.97=100%.
4. We know, that x is 100.79% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=100.79%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 115.97=100%
2) x=100.79%
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:
115.97/x=100%/100.79%
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 100.79% of 115.97

115.97/x=100/100.79
(115.97/x)*x=(100/100.79)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
115.97=0.99216192082548*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.99216192082548) to get x
115.97/0.99216192082548=x
116.886163=x
x=116.886163

now we have:
100.79% of 115.97=116.886163
