What is 1.8 percent of 20325 - 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 20325 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 20325 is 100%, so we can write it down as 20325=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.8%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 20325=100%
2) x=1.8%
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:
20325/x=100%/1.8%
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 1.8% of 20325

20325/x=100/1.8
(20325/x)*x=(100/1.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
20325=55.555555555556*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (55.555555555556) to get x
20325/55.555555555556=x
365.85=x
x=365.85

now we have:
1.8% of 20325=365.85
