What is 13.549 percent of 18.007 - 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 18.007 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 18.007 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18.007=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.549% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.549%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18.007=100%
2) x=13.549%
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:
18.007/x=100%/13.549%
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 13.549% of 18.007

18.007/x=100/13.549
(18.007/x)*x=(100/13.549)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18.007=7.38061849583*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.38061849583) to get x
18.007/7.38061849583=x
2.43976843=x
x=2.43976843

now we have:
13.549% of 18.007=2.43976843
