What is 13.55 percent of 52 - 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 52 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 52 is 100%, so we can write it down as 52=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) 52=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:
52/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 52

52/x=100/13.55
(52/x)*x=(100/13.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
52=7.380073800738*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.380073800738) to get x
52/7.380073800738=x
7.046=x
x=7.046

now we have:
13.55% of 52=7.046
