What is 8.96 percent of 67.21 - 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 67.21 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 67.21 is 100%, so we can write it down as 67.21=100%.
4. We know, that x is 8.96% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=8.96%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 67.21=100%
2) x=8.96%
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:
67.21/x=100%/8.96%
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 8.96% of 67.21

67.21/x=100/8.96
(67.21/x)*x=(100/8.96)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
67.21=11.160714285714*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.160714285714) to get x
67.21/11.160714285714=x
6.022016=x
x=6.022016

now we have:
8.96% of 67.21=6.022016
