What is 48.73 percent of 54 - 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 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 is 100%, so we can write it down as 54=100%.
4. We know, that x is 48.73% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=48.73%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 54=100%
2) x=48.73%
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/x=100%/48.73%
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 48.73% of 54

54/x=100/48.73
(54/x)*x=(100/48.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
54=2.0521239482865*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0521239482865) to get x
54/2.0521239482865=x
26.3142=x
x=26.3142

now we have:
48.73% of 54=26.3142
