What is 699.99 percent of 899.99 - 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 899.99 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 899.99 is 100%, so we can write it down as 899.99=100%.
4. We know, that x is 699.99% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=699.99%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 899.99=100%
2) x=699.99%
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:
899.99/x=100%/699.99%
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 699.99% of 899.99

899.99/x=100/699.99
(899.99/x)*x=(100/699.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
899.99=0.14285918370262*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.14285918370262) to get x
899.99/0.14285918370262=x
6299.840001=x
x=6299.840001

now we have:
699.99% of 899.99=6299.840001
