What is 24.271844660194 percent of 140.24 - 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 140.24 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 140.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 140.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 24.271844660194% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=24.271844660194%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 140.24=100%
2) x=24.271844660194%
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:
140.24/x=100%/24.271844660194%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
