man, 10 year olds know how to solve this, and you don't look like a 10 year old... sad, really sad. you know chicks dig smart guys?
here's a neat trick how to rember to solve proportions:
say out loud: 1637 is 100%
write: 1637 -> 100
say out loud: x is 19%
write x -> 19
now on your paper you have:
1637 -> 100
x -> 19
now multiply diagonally like this:
1637 * 19 = x * 100
so x = (1637 * 19) / 100

Show your working, eh? Sounds like somebody can't be bothered to do their own homework.
I can understand asking for the answer because your calculator and you want to work out how much something will cost in a "19% off sale", but with working shows the fact you are asking us to do your homework for you.
Do $1637 x 0.19 and you will get your answer.

$1637 * .0.19 = $(1637*19)/100= $31103/100= $311.03

19% means 19/100, so multiply (19/100) with 1637.
(19/100)*1637 = 0.19 * 1637 = 311.03 i.e. $311.03.

19% = 19/100 = 0.19
(0.19) * (1637) = 311.03
$311.03
3 x $100
1 x $10
1 x $1
3 x $0.01
