What is 18.91 percent of 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 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 24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 18.91% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=18.91%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 24=100%
2) x=18.91%
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:
24/x=100%/18.91%
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 18.91% of 24

24/x=100/18.91
(24/x)*x=(100/18.91)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
24=5.2882072977261*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.2882072977261) to get x
24/5.2882072977261=x
4.5384=x
x=4.5384

now we have:
18.91% of 24=4.5384
