What is 7.725 percent of 34.85 - 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 34.85 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 34.85 is 100%, so we can write it down as 34.85=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.725% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.725%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 34.85=100%
2) x=7.725%
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:
34.85/x=100%/7.725%
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 7.725% of 34.85

34.85/x=100/7.725
(34.85/x)*x=(100/7.725)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
34.85=12.94498381877*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.94498381877) to get x
34.85/12.94498381877=x
2.6921625=x
x=2.6921625

now we have:
7.725% of 34.85=2.6921625
