What is 99.95 percent of 129.95 - 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 129.95 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 129.95 is 100%, so we can write it down as 129.95=100%.
4. We know, that x is 99.95% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=99.95%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 129.95=100%
2) x=99.95%
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:
129.95/x=100%/99.95%
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 99.95% of 129.95

129.95/x=100/99.95
(129.95/x)*x=(100/99.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
129.95=1.0005002501251*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0005002501251) to get x
129.95/1.0005002501251=x
129.885025=x
x=129.885025

now we have:
99.95% of 129.95=129.885025
