What is 99 percent of 94.6 - 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 94.6 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 94.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 94.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 99% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=99%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 94.6=100%
2) x=99%
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:
94.6/x=100%/99%
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 99% of 94.6

94.6/x=100/99
(94.6/x)*x=(100/99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
94.6=1.010101010101*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.010101010101) to get x
94.6/1.010101010101=x
93.654=x
x=93.654

now we have:
99% of 94.6=93.654
