What is 44.7 percent of 18.32 - 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 18.32 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 18.32 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18.32=100%.
4. We know, that x is 44.7% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=44.7%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18.32=100%
2) x=44.7%
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:
18.32/x=100%/44.7%
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 44.7% of 18.32

18.32/x=100/44.7
(18.32/x)*x=(100/44.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18.32=2.2371364653244*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2371364653244) to get x
18.32/2.2371364653244=x
8.18904=x
x=8.18904

now we have:
44.7% of 18.32=8.18904
