What is 96.36 percent of 10.6 - 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 10.6 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 10.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 10.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 96.36% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=96.36%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 10.6=100%
2) x=96.36%
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:
10.6/x=100%/96.36%
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 96.36% of 10.6

10.6/x=100/96.36
(10.6/x)*x=(100/96.36)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
10.6=1.0377750103778*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0377750103778) to get x
10.6/1.0377750103778=x
10.21416=x
x=10.21416

now we have:
96.36% of 10.6=10.21416
