What is 14.89 percent of 76.54 - 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 76.54 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 76.54 is 100%, so we can write it down as 76.54=100%.
4. We know, that x is 14.89% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=14.89%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 76.54=100%
2) x=14.89%
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:
76.54/x=100%/14.89%
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 14.89% of 76.54

76.54/x=100/14.89
(76.54/x)*x=(100/14.89)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
76.54=6.7159167226326*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.7159167226326) to get x
76.54/6.7159167226326=x
11.396806=x
x=11.396806

now we have:
14.89% of 76.54=11.396806
