What is 23.745 percent of 65.404 - 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 65.404 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 65.404 is 100%, so we can write it down as 65.404=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.745% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.745%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 65.404=100%
2) x=23.745%
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:
65.404/x=100%/23.745%
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 23.745% of 65.404

65.404/x=100/23.745
(65.404/x)*x=(100/23.745)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
65.404=4.2114129290377*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2114129290377) to get x
65.404/4.2114129290377=x
15.5301798=x
x=15.5301798

now we have:
23.745% of 65.404=15.5301798
