What is 90.43 percent of 125 - 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 125 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 125 is 100%, so we can write it down as 125=100%.
4. We know, that x is 90.43% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=90.43%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 125=100%
2) x=90.43%
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:
125/x=100%/90.43%
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 90.43% of 125

125/x=100/90.43
(125/x)*x=(100/90.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
125=1.1058277120425*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1058277120425) to get x
125/1.1058277120425=x
113.0375=x
x=113.0375

now we have:
90.43% of 125=113.0375
