What is 13.759 percent of 6.5 - 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 6.5 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 6.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.759% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.759%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6.5=100%
2) x=13.759%
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:
6.5/x=100%/13.759%
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 13.759% of 6.5

6.5/x=100/13.759
(6.5/x)*x=(100/13.759)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6.5=7.2679700559634*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.2679700559634) to get x
6.5/7.2679700559634=x
0.894335=x
x=0.894335

now we have:
13.759% of 6.5=0.894335
