What is 27.08 percent of 96 - 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 96 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 96 is 100%, so we can write it down as 96=100%.
4. We know, that x is 27.08% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=27.08%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 96=100%
2) x=27.08%
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:
96/x=100%/27.08%
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 27.08% of 96

96/x=100/27.08
(96/x)*x=(100/27.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
96=3.6927621861152*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.6927621861152) to get x
96/3.6927621861152=x
25.9968=x
x=25.9968

now we have:
27.08% of 96=25.9968
