What is 9.01 percent of 28.27 - 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 28.27 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 28.27 is 100%, so we can write it down as 28.27=100%.
4. We know, that x is 9.01% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=9.01%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 28.27=100%
2) x=9.01%
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:
28.27/x=100%/9.01%
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 9.01% of 28.27

28.27/x=100/9.01
(28.27/x)*x=(100/9.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
28.27=11.098779134295*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.098779134295) to get x
28.27/11.098779134295=x
2.547127=x
x=2.547127

now we have:
9.01% of 28.27=2.547127
