What is 16.4 percent of 13.26 - 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 13.26 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 13.26 is 100%, so we can write it down as 13.26=100%.
4. We know, that x is 16.4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=16.4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 13.26=100%
2) x=16.4%
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:
13.26/x=100%/16.4%
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 16.4% of 13.26

13.26/x=100/16.4
(13.26/x)*x=(100/16.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
13.26=6.0975609756098*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.0975609756098) to get x
13.26/6.0975609756098=x
2.17464=x
x=2.17464

now we have:
16.4% of 13.26=2.17464
