What is 13.925 percent of 53.31 - 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 53.31 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 53.31 is 100%, so we can write it down as 53.31=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.925% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.925%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 53.31=100%
2) x=13.925%
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:
53.31/x=100%/13.925%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 13.925% of 53.31

53.31/x=100/13.925
(53.31/x)*x=(100/13.925)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
53.31=7.181328545781*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.181328545781) to get x
53.31/7.181328545781=x
7.4234175=x
x=7.4234175

now we have:
13.925% of 53.31=7.4234175
