What is 7.43 percent of 319.157 - 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 319.157 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 319.157 is 100%, so we can write it down as 319.157=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.43% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.43%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 319.157=100%
2) x=7.43%
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:
319.157/x=100%/7.43%
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 7.43% of 319.157

319.157/x=100/7.43
(319.157/x)*x=(100/7.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
