What is 96.92 percent of 112.5 - 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 112.5 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 112.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 112.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 96.92% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=96.92%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 112.5=100%
2) x=96.92%
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:
112.5/x=100%/96.92%
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 96.92% of 112.5

112.5/x=100/96.92
(112.5/x)*x=(100/96.92)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
112.5=1.0317787866281*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0317787866281) to get x
112.5/1.0317787866281=x
109.035=x
x=109.035

now we have:
96.92% of 112.5=109.035
