What is 88.07 percent of 71.04 - 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 71.04 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 71.04 is 100%, so we can write it down as 71.04=100%.
4. We know, that x is 88.07% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=88.07%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 71.04=100%
2) x=88.07%
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:
71.04/x=100%/88.07%
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 88.07% of 71.04

71.04/x=100/88.07
(71.04/x)*x=(100/88.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
71.04=1.135460429204*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.135460429204) to get x
71.04/1.135460429204=x
62.564928=x
x=62.564928

now we have:
88.07% of 71.04=62.564928
