What is 24.9 percent of 18775 - 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 18775 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 18775 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18775=100%.
4. We know, that x is 24.9% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=24.9%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18775=100%
2) x=24.9%
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:
18775/x=100%/24.9%
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 24.9% of 18775

18775/x=100/24.9
(18775/x)*x=(100/24.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18775=4.0160642570281*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.0160642570281) to get x
18775/4.0160642570281=x
4674.975=x
x=4674.975

now we have:
24.9% of 18775=4674.975
