What is 25.51 percent of 990 - 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 990 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 990 is 100%, so we can write it down as 990=100%.
4. We know, that x is 25.51% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=25.51%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 990=100%
2) x=25.51%
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:
990/x=100%/25.51%
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 25.51% of 990

990/x=100/25.51
(990/x)*x=(100/25.51)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
990=3.9200313602509*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9200313602509) to get x
990/3.9200313602509=x
252.549=x
x=252.549

now we have:
25.51% of 990=252.549
