What is 5.666 percent of 7394 - 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 7394 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 7394 is 100%, so we can write it down as 7394=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.666% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.666%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7394=100%
2) x=5.666%
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:
7394/x=100%/5.666%
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 5.666% of 7394

7394/x=100/5.666
(7394/x)*x=(100/5.666)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7394=17.649135192376*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.649135192376) to get x
7394/17.649135192376=x
418.94404=x
x=418.94404

now we have:
5.666% of 7394=418.94404
