What is 43.24 percent of 148 - 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 148 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 148 is 100%, so we can write it down as 148=100%.
4. We know, that x is 43.24% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=43.24%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 148=100%
2) x=43.24%
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:
148/x=100%/43.24%
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 43.24% of 148

148/x=100/43.24
(148/x)*x=(100/43.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
148=2.3126734505088*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3126734505088) to get x
148/2.3126734505088=x
63.9952=x
x=63.9952

now we have:
43.24% of 148=63.9952
