What is 22.48 percent of 36.69 - 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 36.69 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 36.69 is 100%, so we can write it down as 36.69=100%.
4. We know, that x is 22.48% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=22.48%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 36.69=100%
2) x=22.48%
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:
36.69/x=100%/22.48%
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 22.48% of 36.69

36.69/x=100/22.48
(36.69/x)*x=(100/22.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
36.69=4.4483985765125*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.4483985765125) to get x
36.69/4.4483985765125=x
8.247912=x
x=8.247912

now we have:
22.48% of 36.69=8.247912
