What is 93.9 percent of 1264 - 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 1264 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 1264 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1264=100%.
4. We know, that x is 93.9% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=93.9%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1264=100%
2) x=93.9%
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:
1264/x=100%/93.9%
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 93.9% of 1264

1264/x=100/93.9
(1264/x)*x=(100/93.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1264=1.0649627263046*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0649627263046) to get x
1264/1.0649627263046=x
1186.896=x
x=1186.896

now we have:
93.9% of 1264=1186.896
