What is 103.8 percent of 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 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 25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 103.8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=103.8%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 25=100%
2) x=103.8%
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:
25/x=100%/103.8%
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 103.8% of 25

25/x=100/103.8
(25/x)*x=(100/103.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
25=0.96339113680154*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.96339113680154) to get x
25/0.96339113680154=x
25.95=x
x=25.95

now we have:
103.8% of 25=25.95
