What is 35.17 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 35.17% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35.17%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 96=100%
2) x=35.17%
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%/35.17%
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 35.17% of 96

96/x=100/35.17
(96/x)*x=(100/35.17)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
96=2.8433323855559*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8433323855559) to get x
96/2.8433323855559=x
33.7632=x
x=33.7632

now we have:
35.17% of 96=33.7632
