What is 99.64 percent of 27 - 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 27 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 27 is 100%, so we can write it down as 27=100%.
4. We know, that x is 99.64% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=99.64%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 27=100%
2) x=99.64%
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:
27/x=100%/99.64%
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 99.64% of 27

27/x=100/99.64
(27/x)*x=(100/99.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
27=1.0036130068246*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0036130068246) to get x
27/1.0036130068246=x
26.9028=x
x=26.9028

now we have:
99.64% of 27=26.9028
