What is 23.499 percent of 2.25 - 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 2.25 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 2.25 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.25=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.499% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.499%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.25=100%
2) x=23.499%
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:
2.25/x=100%/23.499%
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 23.499% of 2.25

2.25/x=100/23.499
(2.25/x)*x=(100/23.499)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.25=4.2555002340525*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2555002340525) to get x
2.25/4.2555002340525=x
0.5287275=x
x=0.5287275

now we have:
23.499% of 2.25=0.5287275
