What is 34.57 percent of 1099 - 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 1099 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 1099 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1099=100%.
4. We know, that x is 34.57% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=34.57%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1099=100%
2) x=34.57%
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:
1099/x=100%/34.57%
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 34.57% of 1099

1099/x=100/34.57
(1099/x)*x=(100/34.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1099=2.8926815157651*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8926815157651) to get x
1099/2.8926815157651=x
379.9243=x
x=379.9243

now we have:
34.57% of 1099=379.9243
