What is 52.974 percent of 17.025 - 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 17.025 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 17.025 is 100%, so we can write it down as 17.025=100%.
4. We know, that x is 52.974% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=52.974%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 17.025=100%
2) x=52.974%
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:
17.025/x=100%/52.974%
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 52.974% of 17.025

17.025/x=100/52.974
(17.025/x)*x=(100/52.974)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
17.025=1.8877185034168*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8877185034168) to get x
17.025/1.8877185034168=x
9.0188235=x
x=9.0188235

now we have:
52.974% of 17.025=9.0188235
