What is 9.55 percent of 1078 - 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 1078 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 1078 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1078=100%.
4. We know, that x is 9.55% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=9.55%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1078=100%
2) x=9.55%
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:
1078/x=100%/9.55%
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 9.55% of 1078

1078/x=100/9.55
(1078/x)*x=(100/9.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1078=10.471204188482*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.471204188482) to get x
1078/10.471204188482=x
102.949=x
x=102.949

now we have:
9.55% of 1078=102.949
