What is 18.22 percent of 25.77 - 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 25.77 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 25.77 is 100%, so we can write it down as 25.77=100%.
4. We know, that x is 18.22% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=18.22%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 25.77=100%
2) x=18.22%
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:
25.77/x=100%/18.22%
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 18.22% of 25.77

25.77/x=100/18.22
(25.77/x)*x=(100/18.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
25.77=5.4884742041712*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.4884742041712) to get x
25.77/5.4884742041712=x
4.695294=x
x=4.695294

now we have:
18.22% of 25.77=4.695294
