What is 33.38 percent of 4.52 - 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 4.52 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 4.52 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4.52=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33.38% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33.38%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4.52=100%
2) x=33.38%
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:
4.52/x=100%/33.38%
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 33.38% of 4.52

4.52/x=100/33.38
(4.52/x)*x=(100/33.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4.52=2.9958058717795*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9958058717795) to get x
4.52/2.9958058717795=x
1.508776=x
x=1.508776

now we have:
33.38% of 4.52=1.508776
