What is 35.52 percent of 2.39 - 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 2.39 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 2.39 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.39=100%.
4. We know, that x is 35.52% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35.52%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.39=100%
2) x=35.52%
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:
2.39/x=100%/35.52%
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 35.52% of 2.39

2.39/x=100/35.52
(2.39/x)*x=(100/35.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.39=2.8153153153153*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8153153153153) to get x
2.39/2.8153153153153=x
0.848928=x
x=0.848928

now we have:
35.52% of 2.39=0.848928
