What is 71.7 percent of 1.094 - 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 1.094 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 1.094 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.094=100%.
4. We know, that x is 71.7% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=71.7%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.094=100%
2) x=71.7%
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:
1.094/x=100%/71.7%
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 71.7% of 1.094

1.094/x=100/71.7
(1.094/x)*x=(100/71.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.094=1.39470013947*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.39470013947) to get x
1.094/1.39470013947=x
0.784398=x
x=0.784398

now we have:
71.7% of 1.094=0.784398
