What is 34.45 percent of 119 - 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 119 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 119 is 100%, so we can write it down as 119=100%.
4. We know, that x is 34.45% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=34.45%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 119=100%
2) x=34.45%
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:
119/x=100%/34.45%
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 34.45% of 119

119/x=100/34.45
(119/x)*x=(100/34.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
119=2.9027576197388*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9027576197388) to get x
119/2.9027576197388=x
40.9955=x
x=40.9955

now we have:
34.45% of 119=40.9955
