What is 63.341 percent of 36.5 - 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 36.5 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 36.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 36.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 63.341% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=63.341%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 36.5=100%
2) x=63.341%
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:
36.5/x=100%/63.341%
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 63.341% of 36.5

36.5/x=100/63.341
(36.5/x)*x=(100/63.341)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
36.5=1.5787562558217*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.5787562558217) to get x
36.5/1.5787562558217=x
23.119465=x
x=23.119465

now we have:
63.341% of 36.5=23.119465
