What is 101.3 percent of 88.25 - 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 88.25 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 88.25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 88.25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 101.3% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=101.3%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 88.25=100%
2) x=101.3%
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:
88.25/x=100%/101.3%
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 101.3% of 88.25

88.25/x=100/101.3
(88.25/x)*x=(100/101.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
88.25=0.98716683119447*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.98716683119447) to get x
88.25/0.98716683119447=x
89.39725=x
x=89.39725

now we have:
101.3% of 88.25=89.39725
