What is 16.74 percent of 16.76 - 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 16.76 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 16.76 is 100%, so we can write it down as 16.76=100%.
4. We know, that x is 16.74% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=16.74%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 16.76=100%
2) x=16.74%
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:
16.76/x=100%/16.74%
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 16.74% of 16.76

16.76/x=100/16.74
(16.76/x)*x=(100/16.74)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
16.76=5.973715651135*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.973715651135) to get x
16.76/5.973715651135=x
2.805624=x
x=2.805624

now we have:
16.74% of 16.76=2.805624
