What is 33.25 percent of 27 - 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 27 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 27 is 100%, so we can write it down as 27=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33.25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33.25%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 27=100%
2) x=33.25%
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:
27/x=100%/33.25%
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 33.25% of 27

27/x=100/33.25
(27/x)*x=(100/33.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
27=3.0075187969925*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.0075187969925) to get x
27/3.0075187969925=x
8.9775=x
x=8.9775

now we have:
33.25% of 27=8.9775
