What is 10.09 percent of 432.91 - 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 432.91 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 432.91 is 100%, so we can write it down as 432.91=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.09% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.09%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 432.91=100%
2) x=10.09%
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:
432.91/x=100%/10.09%
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 10.09% of 432.91

432.91/x=100/10.09
(432.91/x)*x=(100/10.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
432.91=9.9108027750248*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.9108027750248) to get x
432.91/9.9108027750248=x
43.680619=x
x=43.680619

now we have:
10.09% of 432.91=43.680619
