What is 136 percent of 742?
Answer: 1009.12
Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.
Steps:
Lets assume 136 percent of 742 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 136% of 742
136% can also be written as 136/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 136/100 × 742
Or, X = 1.36 × 742
So, X = 1009.12
So, 136% of 742 is 1009.12
(You may also first multiply 136 with 742, and then divide by 100 to find the answer, if that's easier for you.)

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.
Answer verification
Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100
LHS (Percentage) = 136
RHS = 1009.12/742 × 100
Or, RHS = 1.36 × 100
So, RHS = 136
We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
