What is 24.606 percent of 18.422 - 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 18.422 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 18.422 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18.422=100%.
4. We know, that x is 24.606% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=24.606%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18.422=100%
2) x=24.606%
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:
18.422/x=100%/24.606%
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 24.606% of 18.422

18.422/x=100/24.606
(18.422/x)*x=(100/24.606)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18.422=4.0640494188409*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0640494188409) to get x
18.422/4.0640494188409=x
4.53291732=x
x=4.53291732

now we have:
