What is 76.47 percent of 12 - 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 12 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 12 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12=100%.
4. We know, that x is 76.47% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=76.47%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12=100%
2) x=76.47%
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:
12/x=100%/76.47%
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 76.47% of 12

12/x=100/76.47
(12/x)*x=(100/76.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12=1.3077023669413*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3077023669413) to get x
12/1.3077023669413=x
9.1764=x
x=9.1764

now we have:
76.47% of 12=9.1764
