What is 13.5 percent of 4175 - 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 4175 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 4175 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4175=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.5% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.5%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4175=100%
2) x=13.5%
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:
4175/x=100%/13.5%
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 13.5% of 4175

4175/x=100/13.5
(4175/x)*x=(100/13.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4175=7.4074074074074*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.4074074074074) to get x
4175/7.4074074074074=x
563.625=x
x=563.625

now we have:
13.5% of 4175=563.625
