What is 72 percent of 9360 - 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 9360 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 9360 is 100%, so we can write it down as 9360=100%.
4. We know, that x is 72% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=72%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 9360=100%
2) x=72%
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:
9360/x=100%/72%
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 72% of 9360

9360/x=100/72
(9360/x)*x=(100/72)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
9360=1.3888888888889*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3888888888889) to get x
9360/1.3888888888889=x
6739.2=x
x=6739.2

now we have:
72% of 9360=6739.2
