18.32 is what percent of 1570 - 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 1570 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 100% equals 1570, so we can write it down as 100%=1570.
4. We know, that x% equals 18.32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=18.32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1570
2) x%=18.32
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:
100%/x%=1570/18.32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 18.32 is what percent of 1570

100%/x%=1570/18.32
(100/x)*x=(1570/18.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=85.698689956332*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (85.698689956332) to get x
100/85.698689956332=x
1.1668789808917=x
x=1.1668789808917

now we have:
18.32 is 1.1668789808917% of 1570
