What is 21.31 percent of 9.137 - 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 9.137 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 9.137 is 100%, so we can write it down as 9.137=100%.
4. We know, that x is 21.31% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=21.31%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 9.137=100%
2) x=21.31%
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:
9.137/x=100%/21.31%
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 21.31% of 9.137

9.137/x=100/21.31
(9.137/x)*x=(100/21.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
9.137=4.69263256687*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.69263256687) to get x
9.137/4.69263256687=x
1.9470947=x
x=1.9470947

now we have:
21.31% of 9.137=1.9470947
