What is 35.74 percent of 42313 - 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 42313 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 42313 is 100%, so we can write it down as 42313=100%.
4. We know, that x is 35.74% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=35.74%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 42313=100%
2) x=35.74%
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:
42313/x=100%/35.74%
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 35.74% of 42313

42313/x=100/35.74
(42313/x)*x=(100/35.74)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
42313=2.7979854504757*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.7979854504757) to get x
42313/2.7979854504757=x
15122.6662=x
x=15122.6662

now we have:
35.74% of 42313=15122.6662
