What is 25.05 percent of 228.99 - 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 228.99 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 228.99 is 100%, so we can write it down as 228.99=100%.
4. We know, that x is 25.05% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=25.05%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 228.99=100%
2) x=25.05%
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:
228.99/x=100%/25.05%
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 25.05% of 228.99

228.99/x=100/25.05
(228.99/x)*x=(100/25.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
228.99=3.9920159680639*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9920159680639) to get x
228.99/3.9920159680639=x
57.361995=x
x=57.361995

now we have:
25.05% of 228.99=57.361995
