What is 1295 percent of 1588 - 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 1588 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 1588 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1588=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1295% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1295%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1588=100%
2) x=1295%
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:
1588/x=100%/1295%
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 1295% of 1588

1588/x=100/1295
(1588/x)*x=(100/1295)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1588=0.077220077220077*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.077220077220077) to get x
1588/0.077220077220077=x
20564.6=x
x=20564.6

now we have:
1295% of 1588=20564.6
