What is 11.91 percent of 1038 - 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 1038 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 1038 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1038=100%.
4. We know, that x is 11.91% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=11.91%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1038=100%
2) x=11.91%
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:
1038/x=100%/11.91%
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 11.91% of 1038

1038/x=100/11.91
(1038/x)*x=(100/11.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1038=8.3963056255248*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.3963056255248) to get x
1038/8.3963056255248=x
123.6258=x
x=123.6258

now we have:
11.91% of 1038=123.6258
