What is 54.6 percent of 13.65 - 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 13.65 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 13.65 is 100%, so we can write it down as 13.65=100%.
4. We know, that x is 54.6% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=54.6%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 13.65=100%
2) x=54.6%
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:
13.65/x=100%/54.6%
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 54.6% of 13.65

13.65/x=100/54.6
(13.65/x)*x=(100/54.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
13.65=1.8315018315018*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8315018315018) to get x
13.65/1.8315018315018=x
7.4529=x
x=7.4529

now we have:
54.6% of 13.65=7.4529
