What is 34.67 percent of 23.87 - 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 23.87 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 23.87 is 100%, so we can write it down as 23.87=100%.
4. We know, that x is 34.67% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=34.67%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 23.87=100%
2) x=34.67%
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:
23.87/x=100%/34.67%
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 34.67% of 23.87

23.87/x=100/34.67
(23.87/x)*x=(100/34.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
23.87=2.8843380444188*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8843380444188) to get x
23.87/2.8843380444188=x
8.275729=x
x=8.275729

now we have:
34.67% of 23.87=8.275729
