2 is what percent of 32700 - 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 32700 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 100% equals 32700, so we can write it down as 100%=32700.
4. We know, that x% equals 2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32700
2) x%=2
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:
100%/x%=32700/2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2 is what percent of 32700

100%/x%=32700/2
(100/x)*x=(32700/2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16350*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16350) to get x
100/16350=x
0.0061162079510703=x
x=0.0061162079510703

now we have:
2 is 0.0061162079510703% of 32700
