What is 47.53 percent of 55 - 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 55 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 55 is 100%, so we can write it down as 55=100%.
4. We know, that x is 47.53% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=47.53%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 55=100%
2) x=47.53%
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:
55/x=100%/47.53%
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 47.53% of 55

55/x=100/47.53
(55/x)*x=(100/47.53)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
55=2.1039343572481*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.1039343572481) to get x
55/2.1039343572481=x
26.1415=x
x=26.1415

now we have:
47.53% of 55=26.1415
