What is 45.44 percent of 3.212 - 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 3.212 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 3.212 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3.212=100%.
4. We know, that x is 45.44% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=45.44%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3.212=100%
2) x=45.44%
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:
3.212/x=100%/45.44%
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 45.44% of 3.212

3.212/x=100/45.44
(3.212/x)*x=(100/45.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3.212=2.2007042253521*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2007042253521) to get x
3.212/2.2007042253521=x
1.4595328=x
x=1.4595328

now we have:
45.44% of 3.212=1.4595328
