What is 80.82 percent of 104 - 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 104 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 104 is 100%, so we can write it down as 104=100%.
4. We know, that x is 80.82% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=80.82%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 104=100%
2) x=80.82%
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:
104/x=100%/80.82%
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 80.82% of 104

104/x=100/80.82
(104/x)*x=(100/80.82)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
104=1.2373174956694*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2373174956694) to get x
104/1.2373174956694=x
84.0528=x
x=84.0528

now we have:
80.82% of 104=84.0528
