What is 1.02 percent of 294400 - 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 294400 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 294400 is 100%, so we can write it down as 294400=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.02% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.02%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 294400=100%
2) x=1.02%
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:
294400/x=100%/1.02%
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 1.02% of 294400

294400/x=100/1.02
(294400/x)*x=(100/1.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
294400=98.039215686275*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (98.039215686275) to get x
294400/98.039215686275=x
3002.88=x
x=3002.88

now we have:
1.02% of 294400=3002.88
