What is 71.42 percent of 7130 - 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 7130 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 7130 is 100%, so we can write it down as 7130=100%.
4. We know, that x is 71.42% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=71.42%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 7130=100%
2) x=71.42%
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:
7130/x=100%/71.42%
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 71.42% of 7130

7130/x=100/71.42
(7130/x)*x=(100/71.42)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
7130=1.4001680201624*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4001680201624) to get x
7130/1.4001680201624=x
5092.246=x
x=5092.246

now we have:
71.42% of 7130=5092.246
