What is 33.88 percent of 46000 - 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 46000 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 46000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 46000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33.88% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33.88%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 46000=100%
2) x=33.88%
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:
46000/x=100%/33.88%
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 33.88% of 46000

46000/x=100/33.88
(46000/x)*x=(100/33.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
46000=2.9515938606848*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9515938606848) to get x
46000/2.9515938606848=x
15584.8=x
x=15584.8

now we have:
33.88% of 46000=15584.8
