What is 118.45 percent of 162 - 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 162 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 162 is 100%, so we can write it down as 162=100%.
4. We know, that x is 118.45% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=118.45%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 162=100%
2) x=118.45%
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:
162/x=100%/118.45%
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 118.45% of 162

162/x=100/118.45
(162/x)*x=(100/118.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
162=0.84423807513719*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.84423807513719) to get x
162/0.84423807513719=x
191.889=x
x=191.889

now we have:
118.45% of 162=191.889
