What is 10.89 percent of 14 - 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 14 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 14 is 100%, so we can write it down as 14=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.89% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.89%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 14=100%
2) x=10.89%
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:
14/x=100%/10.89%
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 10.89% of 14

14/x=100/10.89
(14/x)*x=(100/10.89)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
14=9.1827364554637*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.1827364554637) to get x
14/9.1827364554637=x
1.5246=x
x=1.5246

now we have:
10.89% of 14=1.5246
