What is 37.41 percent of 21.75 - 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 21.75 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 21.75 is 100%, so we can write it down as 21.75=100%.
4. We know, that x is 37.41% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=37.41%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 21.75=100%
2) x=37.41%
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:
21.75/x=100%/37.41%
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 37.41% of 21.75

21.75/x=100/37.41
(21.75/x)*x=(100/37.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
21.75=2.6730820636194*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.6730820636194) to get x
21.75/2.6730820636194=x
8.136675=x
x=8.136675

now we have:
37.41% of 21.75=8.136675
