19.47 is what percent of 337.32 - 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 337.32 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 337.32, so we can write it down as 100%=337.32.
4. We know, that x% equals 19.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=19.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=337.32
2) x%=19.47
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%=337.32/19.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19.47 is what percent of 337.32

100%/x%=337.32/19.47
(100/x)*x=(337.32/19.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=17.3251155624*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.3251155624) to get x
100/17.3251155624=x
5.77196727143=x
x=5.77196727143

now we have:
19.47 is 5.77196727143% of 337.32
