What is 24.22 percent of 36.97 - 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 36.97 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 36.97 is 100%, so we can write it down as 36.97=100%.
4. We know, that x is 24.22% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=24.22%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 36.97=100%
2) x=24.22%
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:
36.97/x=100%/24.22%
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 24.22% of 36.97

36.97/x=100/24.22
(36.97/x)*x=(100/24.22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
36.97=4.1288191577209*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1288191577209) to get x
36.97/4.1288191577209=x
8.954134=x
x=8.954134

now we have:
24.22% of 36.97=8.954134
