To find the value of \( x \) when \( 10.4\% \) of \( x \) equals \( 7.02 \), we can set up the equation:
\[
0.104x = 7.02
\]
Next, we can solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides of the equation by \( 0.104 \):
\[
x = \frac{7.02}{0.104}
\]
Now calculating that:
\[
x \approx 67.5
\]
Therefore, the approximate value of \( x \) is \( 67.5 \).
\[
0.104x = 7.02
\]
Next, we can solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides of the equation by \( 0.104 \):
\[
x = \frac{7.02}{0.104}
\]
Now calculating that:
\[
x \approx 67.5
\]
Therefore, the approximate value of \( x \) is \( 67.5 \).
