What is 16.05 percent of 16.75 - 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 16.75 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 16.75 is 100%, so we can write it down as 16.75=100%.
4. We know, that x is 16.05% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=16.05%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 16.75=100%
2) x=16.05%
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:
16.75/x=100%/16.05%
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 16.05% of 16.75

16.75/x=100/16.05
(16.75/x)*x=(100/16.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
16.75=6.2305295950156*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.2305295950156) to get x
16.75/6.2305295950156=x
2.688375=x
x=2.688375

now we have:
16.05% of 16.75=2.688375
