19 is what percent of 567 - 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 567 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 567, so we can write it down as 100%=567.
4. We know, that x% equals 19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=567
2) x%=19
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%=567/19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19 is what percent of 567

100%/x%=567/19
(100/x)*x=(567/19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=29.842105263158*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (29.842105263158) to get x
100/29.842105263158=x
3.3509700176367=x
x=3.3509700176367

now we have:
19 is 3.3509700176367% of 567
