What is 16.94 percent of 136 - 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 136 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 136 is 100%, so we can write it down as 136=100%.
4. We know, that x is 16.94% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=16.94%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 136=100%
2) x=16.94%
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:
136/x=100%/16.94%
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 16.94% of 136

136/x=100/16.94
(136/x)*x=(100/16.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
136=5.9031877213695*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.9031877213695) to get x
136/5.9031877213695=x
23.0384=x
x=23.0384

now we have:
16.94% of 136=23.0384
