What is 15.104 percent of 8.058 - 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 8.058 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 8.058 is 100%, so we can write it down as 8.058=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15.104% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15.104%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 8.058=100%
2) x=15.104%
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:
8.058/x=100%/15.104%
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 15.104% of 8.058

8.058/x=100/15.104
(8.058/x)*x=(100/15.104)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
8.058=6.6207627118644*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.6207627118644) to get x
8.058/6.6207627118644=x
1.21708032=x
x=1.21708032

now we have:
15.104% of 8.058=1.21708032
