What is 18.09 percent of 30.95 - 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 30.95 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 30.95 is 100%, so we can write it down as 30.95=100%.
4. We know, that x is 18.09% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=18.09%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 30.95=100%
2) x=18.09%
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:
30.95/x=100%/18.09%
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 18.09% of 30.95

30.95/x=100/18.09
(30.95/x)*x=(100/18.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
30.95=5.5279159756772*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.5279159756772) to get x
30.95/5.5279159756772=x
5.598855=x
x=5.598855

now we have:
18.09% of 30.95=5.598855
