What is 88.46 percent of 112.2 - 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 112.2 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 112.2 is 100%, so we can write it down as 112.2=100%.
4. We know, that x is 88.46% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=88.46%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 112.2=100%
2) x=88.46%
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:
112.2/x=100%/88.46%
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 88.46% of 112.2

112.2/x=100/88.46
(112.2/x)*x=(100/88.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
112.2=1.130454442686*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.130454442686) to get x
112.2/1.130454442686=x
99.25212=x
x=99.25212

now we have:
88.46% of 112.2=99.25212
