What is 42.11 percent of 19 - 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 19 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 19 is 100%, so we can write it down as 19=100%.
4. We know, that x is 42.11% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=42.11%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 19=100%
2) x=42.11%
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:
19/x=100%/42.11%
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 42.11% of 19

19/x=100/42.11
(19/x)*x=(100/42.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
19=2.3747328425552*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3747328425552) to get x
19/2.3747328425552=x
8.0009=x
x=8.0009

now we have:
42.11% of 19=8.0009
