What is 37.540740740741 percent of 14 - 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 14 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 14 is 100%, so we can write it down as 14=100%.
4. We know, that x is 37.540740740741% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=37.540740740741%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 14=100%
2) x=37.540740740741%
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:
14/x=100%/37.540740740741%
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 37.540740740741% of 14

14/x=100/37.540740740741
(14/x)*x=(100/37.540740740741)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
14=2.663772691397*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.663772691397) to get x
14/2.663772691397=x
5.2557037037037=x
x=5.2557037037037

now we have:
37.540740740741% of 14=5.2557037037037
