What is 15.996 percent of 13.14 - 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 13.14 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 13.14 is 100%, so we can write it down as 13.14=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15.996% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15.996%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 13.14=100%
2) x=15.996%
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:
13.14/x=100%/15.996%
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 15.996% of 13.14

13.14/x=100/15.996
(13.14/x)*x=(100/15.996)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
13.14=6.2515628907227*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.2515628907227) to get x
13.14/6.2515628907227=x
2.1018744=x
x=2.1018744

now we have:
15.996% of 13.14=2.1018744
