What is 82.17 percent of 700 - 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 700 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 700 is 100%, so we can write it down as 700=100%.
4. We know, that x is 82.17% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=82.17%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 700=100%
2) x=82.17%
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:
700/x=100%/82.17%
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 82.17% of 700

700/x=100/82.17
(700/x)*x=(100/82.17)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
700=1.2169891687964*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2169891687964) to get x
700/1.2169891687964=x
575.19=x
x=575.19

now we have:
82.17% of 700=575.19
