What is 79.55 percent of 11.4 - 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 11.4 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 11.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 11.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 79.55% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=79.55%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 11.4=100%
2) x=79.55%
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:
11.4/x=100%/79.55%
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 79.55% of 11.4

11.4/x=100/79.55
(11.4/x)*x=(100/79.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
11.4=1.2570710245129*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2570710245129) to get x
11.4/1.2570710245129=x
9.0687=x
x=9.0687

now we have:
79.55% of 11.4=9.0687
