What is 51.724 percent of 24.82 - 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 24.82 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 24.82 is 100%, so we can write it down as 24.82=100%.
4. We know, that x is 51.724% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=51.724%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 24.82=100%
2) x=51.724%
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:
24.82/x=100%/51.724%
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 51.724% of 24.82

24.82/x=100/51.724
(24.82/x)*x=(100/51.724)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
24.82=1.9333384889026*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9333384889026) to get x
24.82/1.9333384889026=x
12.8378968=x
x=12.8378968

now we have:
51.724% of 24.82=12.8378968
