What is 57.34 percent of 1.74 - 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 1.74 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 1.74 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.74=100%.
4. We know, that x is 57.34% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=57.34%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.74=100%
2) x=57.34%
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:
1.74/x=100%/57.34%
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 57.34% of 1.74

1.74/x=100/57.34
(1.74/x)*x=(100/57.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.74=1.7439832577607*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7439832577607) to get x
1.74/1.7439832577607=x
0.997716=x
x=0.997716

now we have:
57.34% of 1.74=0.997716
