What is 6.3637 percent of 1700 - 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 1700 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 1700 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1700=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.3637% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.3637%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1700=100%
2) x=6.3637%
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:
1700/x=100%/6.3637%
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 6.3637% of 1700

1700/x=100/6.3637
(1700/x)*x=(100/6.3637)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1700=15.714128573*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.714128573) to get x
1700/15.714128573=x
108.1829=x
x=108.1829

now we have:
6.3637% of 1700=108.1829
