What is 79.43 percent of 84.5 - 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 84.5 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 84.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 84.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 79.43% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=79.43%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 84.5=100%
2) x=79.43%
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:
84.5/x=100%/79.43%
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 79.43% of 84.5

84.5/x=100/79.43
(84.5/x)*x=(100/79.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
84.5=1.2589701624072*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2589701624072) to get x
84.5/1.2589701624072=x
67.11835=x
x=67.11835

now we have:
79.43% of 84.5=67.11835
