2310.6 is what percent of 29985 - 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 29985 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 29985, so we can write it down as 100%=29985.
4. We know, that x% equals 2310.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2310.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=29985
2) x%=2310.6
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%=29985/2310.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2310.6 is what percent of 29985

100%/x%=29985/2310.6
(100/x)*x=(29985/2310.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12.977148792521*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.977148792521) to get x
100/12.977148792521=x
7.7058529264632=x
x=7.7058529264632

now we have:
