3 is what percent of 19044 - 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 19044 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 19044, so we can write it down as 100%=19044.
4. We know, that x% equals 3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=19044
2) x%=3
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%=19044/3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3 is what percent of 19044

100%/x%=19044/3
(100/x)*x=(19044/3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6348*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6348) to get x
100/6348=x
0.015752993068683=x
x=0.015752993068683

now we have:
3 is 0.015752993068683% of 19044
