What is 48.276 percent of 23.81 - 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 23.81 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 23.81 is 100%, so we can write it down as 23.81=100%.
4. We know, that x is 48.276% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=48.276%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 23.81=100%
2) x=48.276%
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:
23.81/x=100%/48.276%
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 48.276% of 23.81

23.81/x=100/48.276
(23.81/x)*x=(100/48.276)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
23.81=2.0714226530781*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0714226530781) to get x
23.81/2.0714226530781=x
11.4945156=x
x=11.4945156

now we have:
48.276% of 23.81=11.4945156
