What is 6.43 percent of 16562.4 - 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 16562.4 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 16562.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 16562.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.43% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.43%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 16562.4=100%
2) x=6.43%
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:
16562.4/x=100%/6.43%
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 6.43% of 16562.4

16562.4/x=100/6.43
(16562.4/x)*x=(100/6.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
16562.4=15.552099533437*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.552099533437) to get x
16562.4/15.552099533437=x
1064.96232=x
x=1064.96232

now we have:
