What is 13.588 percent of 0.43 - 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 0.43 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 0.43 is 100%, so we can write it down as 0.43=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.588% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.588%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 0.43=100%
2) x=13.588%
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:
0.43/x=100%/13.588%
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 13.588% of 0.43

0.43/x=100/13.588
(0.43/x)*x=(100/13.588)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
0.43=7.3594347954077*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.3594347954077) to get x
0.43/7.3594347954077=x
0.0584284=x
x=0.0584284

now we have:
13.588% of 0.43=0.0584284
