What is 7.35294 percent of 5.46 - 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 5.46 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 5.46 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5.46=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.35294% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.35294%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5.46=100%
2) x=7.35294%
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:
5.46/x=100%/7.35294%
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 7.35294% of 5.46

5.46/x=100/7.35294
(5.46/x)*x=(100/7.35294)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5.46=13.600002176*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.600002176) to get x
5.46/13.600002176=x
0.401470524=x
x=0.401470524

now we have:
7.35294% of 5.46=0.401470524
