What is 19.0476190476 percent of 21 - 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 21 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 21 is 100%, so we can write it down as 21=100%.
4. We know, that x is 19.0476190476% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=19.0476190476%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 21=100%
2) x=19.0476190476%
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:
21/x=100%/19.0476190476%
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 19.0476190476% of 21

21/x=100/19.0476190476
(21/x)*x=(100/19.0476190476)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
21=5.2500000000053*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.2500000000053) to get x
21/5.2500000000053=x
3.999999999996=x
x=3.999999999996

now we have:
19.0476190476% of 21=3.999999999996
