What is 9% of 56? what is the formula? what are the step by steps?

16.07%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 56 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100% = 56.

Step 4: In the same vein, x%=9.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

100=56(1).

x%=9(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

100% = 56

   x%       9

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

x% = 9

100%  56

x = 16.07%

Therefore, 9 is 16.07% of $56.

5.04

Step-by-step explanation:

9*56/100=5.04
