What is 35.96 percent of 27 - 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 27 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 27 is 100%, so we can write it down as 27=100%.
4. We know, that x is 35.96% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35.96%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 27=100%
2) x=35.96%
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:
27/x=100%/35.96%
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 35.96% of 27

27/x=100/35.96
(27/x)*x=(100/35.96)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
27=2.7808676307008*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.7808676307008) to get x
27/2.7808676307008=x
9.7092=x
x=9.7092

now we have:
35.96% of 27=9.7092
