What is 64.34 percent of 73.5 - 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 73.5 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 73.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 73.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 64.34% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=64.34%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 73.5=100%
2) x=64.34%
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:
73.5/x=100%/64.34%
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 64.34% of 73.5

73.5/x=100/64.34
(73.5/x)*x=(100/64.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
73.5=1.5542430836183*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5542430836183) to get x
73.5/1.5542430836183=x
47.2899=x
x=47.2899

now we have:
64.34% of 73.5=47.2899
