What is 1.968 percent of 18.938 - 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 18.938 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 18.938 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18.938=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.968% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.968%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18.938=100%
2) x=1.968%
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:
18.938/x=100%/1.968%
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 1.968% of 18.938

18.938/x=100/1.968
(18.938/x)*x=(100/1.968)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18.938=50.813008130081*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (50.813008130081) to get x
18.938/50.813008130081=x
0.37269984=x
x=0.37269984

now we have:
1.968% of 18.938=0.37269984
