20.45 is what percent of 19523 - 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 19523 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 100% equals 19523, so we can write it down as 100%=19523.
4. We know, that x% equals 20.45 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=20.45.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=19523
2) x%=20.45
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:
100%/x%=19523/20.45
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 20.45 is what percent of 19523

100%/x%=19523/20.45
(100/x)*x=(19523/20.45)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=954.66992665037*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (954.66992665037) to get x
100/954.66992665037=x
0.10474824565897=x
x=0.10474824565897

now we have:
