What is 17.67 percent of 936 - 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 936 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 936 is 100%, so we can write it down as 936=100%.
4. We know, that x is 17.67% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=17.67%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 936=100%
2) x=17.67%
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:
936/x=100%/17.67%
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 17.67% of 936

936/x=100/17.67
(936/x)*x=(100/17.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
936=5.6593095642332*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.6593095642332) to get x
936/5.6593095642332=x
165.3912=x
x=165.3912

now we have:
17.67% of 936=165.3912
