What is 88.88 percent of 88 - 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 88 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 88 is 100%, so we can write it down as 88=100%.
4. We know, that x is 88.88% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=88.88%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 88=100%
2) x=88.88%
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:
88/x=100%/88.88%
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 88.88% of 88

88/x=100/88.88
(88/x)*x=(100/88.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
88=1.1251125112511*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1251125112511) to get x
88/1.1251125112511=x
78.2144=x
x=78.2144

now we have:
88.88% of 88=78.2144
