What is 14.8 percent of 1.95 - 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 1.95 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 1.95 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.95=100%.
4. We know, that x is 14.8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=14.8%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.95=100%
2) x=14.8%
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:
1.95/x=100%/14.8%
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 14.8% of 1.95

1.95/x=100/14.8
(1.95/x)*x=(100/14.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.95=6.75675675676*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.75675675676) to get x
1.95/6.75675675676=x
0.2886=x
x=0.2886

now we have:
14.8% of 1.95=0.2886
