What is 13.526 percent of 36.284 - 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 36.284 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 36.284 is 100%, so we can write it down as 36.284=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.526% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.526%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 36.284=100%
2) x=13.526%
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:
36.284/x=100%/13.526%
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 13.526% of 36.284

36.284/x=100/13.526
(36.284/x)*x=(100/13.526)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
36.284=7.39316871211*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.39316871211) to get x
36.284/7.39316871211=x
4.90777384=x
x=4.90777384

now we have:
13.526% of 36.284=4.90777384
