What is 33.42 percent of 41 - 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 41 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 41 is 100%, so we can write it down as 41=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33.42% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33.42%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 41=100%
2) x=33.42%
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:
41/x=100%/33.42%
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 33.42% of 41

41/x=100/33.42
(41/x)*x=(100/33.42)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
41=2.9922202274087*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9922202274087) to get x
41/2.9922202274087=x
13.7022=x
x=13.7022

now we have:
33.42% of 41=13.7022
