What is 45.625 percent of 54.4 - 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 54.4 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 54.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 54.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 45.625% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=45.625%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 54.4=100%
2) x=45.625%
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:
54.4/x=100%/45.625%
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 45.625% of 54.4

54.4/x=100/45.625
(54.4/x)*x=(100/45.625)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
54.4=2.1917808219178*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.1917808219178) to get x
54.4/2.1917808219178=x
24.82=x
x=24.82

now we have:
45.625% of 54.4=24.82
