What is 99.94 percent of 5074 - 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 5074 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 5074 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5074=100%.
4. We know, that x is 99.94% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=99.94%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5074=100%
2) x=99.94%
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:
5074/x=100%/99.94%
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 99.94% of 5074

5074/x=100/99.94
(5074/x)*x=(100/99.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5074=1.0006003602161*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0006003602161) to get x
5074/1.0006003602161=x
5070.9556=x
x=5070.9556

now we have:
99.94% of 5074=5070.9556
