What is 1125 percent of 799.25 - 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 799.25 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 799.25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 799.25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1125% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1125%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 799.25=100%
2) x=1125%
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:
799.25/x=100%/1125%
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 1125% of 799.25

799.25/x=100/1125
(799.25/x)*x=(100/1125)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
799.25=0.088888888888889*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.088888888888889) to get x
799.25/0.088888888888889=x
8991.5625=x
x=8991.5625

now we have:
1125% of 799.25=8991.5625
