What is 13.83 percent of 360 - 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 360 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 360 is 100%, so we can write it down as 360=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13.83% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13.83%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 360=100%
2) x=13.83%
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:
360/x=100%/13.83%
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 13.83% of 360

360/x=100/13.83
(360/x)*x=(100/13.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
360=7.2306579898771*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.2306579898771) to get x
360/7.2306579898771=x
49.788=x
x=49.788

now we have:
13.83% of 360=49.788
