What is 20.38 percent of 1080 - 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 1080 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 1080 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1080=100%.
4. We know, that x is 20.38% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=20.38%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1080=100%
2) x=20.38%
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:
1080/x=100%/20.38%
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 20.38% of 1080

1080/x=100/20.38
(1080/x)*x=(100/20.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1080=4.9067713444553*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.9067713444553) to get x
1080/4.9067713444553=x
220.104=x
x=220.104

now we have:
20.38% of 1080=220.104
