What is 67.7 percent of 88.53 - 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 88.53 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 88.53 is 100%, so we can write it down as 88.53=100%.
4. We know, that x is 67.7% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=67.7%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 88.53=100%
2) x=67.7%
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:
88.53/x=100%/67.7%
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 67.7% of 88.53

88.53/x=100/67.7
(88.53/x)*x=(100/67.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
88.53=1.4771048744461*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4771048744461) to get x
88.53/1.4771048744461=x
59.93481=x
x=59.93481

now we have:
67.7% of 88.53=59.93481
