What is 8.99 percent of 6357.48 - 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 6357.48 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 6357.48 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6357.48=100%.
4. We know, that x is 8.99% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=8.99%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6357.48=100%
2) x=8.99%
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:
6357.48/x=100%/8.99%
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 8.99% of 6357.48

6357.48/x=100/8.99
(6357.48/x)*x=(100/8.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6357.48=11.123470522803*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.123470522803) to get x
6357.48/11.123470522803=x
571.537452=x
x=571.537452

now we have:
8.99% of 6357.48=571.537452
