What is 13.59 percent of 23.29 - 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 23.29 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 23.29 is 100%, so we can write it down as 23.29=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.59% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.59%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 23.29=100%
2) x=13.59%
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:
23.29/x=100%/13.59%
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 13.59% of 23.29

23.29/x=100/13.59
(23.29/x)*x=(100/13.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
23.29=7.3583517292127*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.3583517292127) to get x
23.29/7.3583517292127=x
3.165111=x
x=3.165111

now we have:
13.59% of 23.29=3.165111
