What is 12.32 percent of 209.25 - 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 209.25 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 209.25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 209.25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.32% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.32%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 209.25=100%
2) x=12.32%
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:
209.25/x=100%/12.32%
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 12.32% of 209.25

209.25/x=100/12.32
(209.25/x)*x=(100/12.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
209.25=8.1168831168831*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.1168831168831) to get x
209.25/8.1168831168831=x
25.7796=x
x=25.7796

now we have:
12.32% of 209.25=25.7796
