What is 13.55 percent of 19995 - 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 19995 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 19995 is 100%, so we can write it down as 19995=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.55% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.55%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 19995=100%
2) x=13.55%
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:
19995/x=100%/13.55%
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 13.55% of 19995

19995/x=100/13.55
(19995/x)*x=(100/13.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
19995=7.380073800738*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.380073800738) to get x
19995/7.380073800738=x
2709.3225=x
x=2709.3225

now we have:
13.55% of 19995=2709.3225
