What is 7.09 percent of 21249.66 - 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 21249.66 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 21249.66 is 100%, so we can write it down as 21249.66=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.09% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.09%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 21249.66=100%
2) x=7.09%
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:
21249.66/x=100%/7.09%
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 7.09% of 21249.66

21249.66/x=100/7.09
