What is 53.77 percent of 170 - 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 170 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 170 is 100%, so we can write it down as 170=100%.
4. We know, that x is 53.77% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=53.77%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 170=100%
2) x=53.77%
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:
170/x=100%/53.77%
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 53.77% of 170

170/x=100/53.77
(170/x)*x=(100/53.77)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
170=1.8597731076809*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8597731076809) to get x
170/1.8597731076809=x
91.409=x
x=91.409

now we have:
53.77% of 170=91.409
