What is 97.42 percent of 8886.24 - 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 8886.24 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 8886.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 8886.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 97.42% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=97.42%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 8886.24=100%
2) x=97.42%
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:
8886.24/x=100%/97.42%
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 97.42% of 8886.24

8886.24/x=100/97.42
