What is 23.52 percent of 15.75 - 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 15.75 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 15.75 is 100%, so we can write it down as 15.75=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.52% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.52%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 15.75=100%
2) x=23.52%
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:
15.75/x=100%/23.52%
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 23.52% of 15.75

15.75/x=100/23.52
(15.75/x)*x=(100/23.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
15.75=4.2517006802721*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2517006802721) to get x
15.75/4.2517006802721=x
3.7044=x
x=3.7044

now we have:
23.52% of 15.75=3.7044
