What is 89.247311827957 percent of 2.5 - 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 2.5 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 2.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 89.247311827957% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=89.247311827957%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.5=100%
2) x=89.247311827957%
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:
2.5/x=100%/89.247311827957%
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 89.247311827957% of 2.5

2.5/x=100/89.247311827957
(2.5/x)*x=(100/89.247311827957)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.5=1.1204819277108*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1204819277108) to get x
2.5/1.1204819277108=x
2.2311827956989=x
x=2.2311827956989

now we have:
89.247311827957% of 2.5=2.2311827956989
