What is 0.088 percent of 2427.86 - 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 2427.86 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 2427.86 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2427.86=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.088% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.088%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2427.86=100%
2) x=0.088%
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:
2427.86/x=100%/0.088%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.088% of 2427.86

2427.86/x=100/0.088
(2427.86/x)*x=(100/0.088)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2427.86=1136.3636363636*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1136.3636363636) to get x
2427.86/1136.3636363636=x
2.1365168=x
x=2.1365168

now we have:
