What is 64.99 percent of 130.97 - 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 130.97 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 130.97 is 100%, so we can write it down as 130.97=100%.
4. We know, that x is 64.99% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=64.99%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 130.97=100%
2) x=64.99%
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:
130.97/x=100%/64.99%
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 64.99% of 130.97

130.97/x=100/64.99
(130.97/x)*x=(100/64.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
130.97=1.538698261271*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.538698261271) to get x
130.97/1.538698261271=x
85.117403=x
x=85.117403

now we have:
64.99% of 130.97=85.117403
