What is 29.73 percent of 9.98 - 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 9.98 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 9.98 is 100%, so we can write it down as 9.98=100%.
4. We know, that x is 29.73% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=29.73%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 9.98=100%
2) x=29.73%
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:
9.98/x=100%/29.73%
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 29.73% of 9.98

9.98/x=100/29.73
(9.98/x)*x=(100/29.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
9.98=3.363605785402*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.363605785402) to get x
9.98/3.363605785402=x
2.967054=x
x=2.967054

now we have:
29.73% of 9.98=2.967054
