What is 36.52 percent of 28.52 - 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 28.52 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 28.52 is 100%, so we can write it down as 28.52=100%.
4. We know, that x is 36.52% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=36.52%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 28.52=100%
2) x=36.52%
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:
28.52/x=100%/36.52%
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 36.52% of 28.52

28.52/x=100/36.52
(28.52/x)*x=(100/36.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
28.52=2.7382256297919*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.7382256297919) to get x
28.52/2.7382256297919=x
10.415504=x
x=10.415504

now we have:
36.52% of 28.52=10.415504
