What is 6.54 percent of 72.67 - 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 72.67 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 72.67 is 100%, so we can write it down as 72.67=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.54% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.54%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 72.67=100%
2) x=6.54%
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:
72.67/x=100%/6.54%
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 6.54% of 72.67

72.67/x=100/6.54
(72.67/x)*x=(100/6.54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
72.67=15.290519877676*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.290519877676) to get x
72.67/15.290519877676=x
4.752618=x
x=4.752618

now we have:
6.54% of 72.67=4.752618
