What is 18.3333333 percent of 0.24 - 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 0.24 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 0.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 0.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 18.3333333% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=18.3333333%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 0.24=100%
2) x=18.3333333%
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:
0.24/x=100%/18.3333333%
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 18.3333333% of 0.24

0.24/x=100/18.3333333
(0.24/x)*x=(100/18.3333333)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
0.24=5.4545454644628*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.4545454644628) to get x
0.24/5.4545454644628=x
0.04399999992=x
x=0.04399999992

now we have:
18.3333333% of 0.24=0.04399999992
