2.03 is what percent of 29 - 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 29 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 29, so we can write it down as 100%=29.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.03 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.03.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=29
2) x%=2.03
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%=29/2.03
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.03 is what percent of 29

100%/x%=29/2.03
(100/x)*x=(29/2.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.285714285714*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.285714285714) to get x
100/14.285714285714=x
7=x
x=7

now we have:
2.03 is 7% of 29
