What is 21.09 percent of 502.497 - 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 502.497 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 502.497 is 100%, so we can write it down as 502.497=100%.
4. We know, that x is 21.09% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=21.09%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 502.497=100%
2) x=21.09%
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:
502.497/x=100%/21.09%
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 21.09% of 502.497

502.497/x=100/21.09

502.497=4.7415836889521*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.7415836889521) to get x
502.497/4.7415836889521=x
105.9766173=x
x=105.9766173

now we have:
