What is 23.13 percent of 260 - 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 260 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 260 is 100%, so we can write it down as 260=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.13% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.13%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 260=100%
2) x=23.13%
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:
260/x=100%/23.13%
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 23.13% of 260

260/x=100/23.13
(260/x)*x=(100/23.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
260=4.3233895373973*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.3233895373973) to get x
260/4.3233895373973=x
60.138=x
x=60.138

now we have:
23.13% of 260=60.138
