What is 52.24 percent of 65 - 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 65 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 65 is 100%, so we can write it down as 65=100%.
4. We know, that x is 52.24% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=52.24%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 65=100%
2) x=52.24%
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:
65/x=100%/52.24%
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 52.24% of 65

65/x=100/52.24
(65/x)*x=(100/52.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
65=1.9142419601838*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9142419601838) to get x
65/1.9142419601838=x
33.956=x
x=33.956

now we have:
52.24% of 65=33.956
