What is 25.99 percent of 9120 - 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 9120 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 9120 is 100%, so we can write it down as 9120=100%.
4. We know, that x is 25.99% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=25.99%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 9120=100%
2) x=25.99%
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:
9120/x=100%/25.99%
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 25.99% of 9120

9120/x=100/25.99
(9120/x)*x=(100/25.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
9120=3.8476337052713*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.8476337052713) to get x
9120/3.8476337052713=x
2370.288=x
x=2370.288

now we have:
25.99% of 9120=2370.288
