What is 1.41 percent of 437.24 - 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 437.24 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 437.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 437.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.41% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.41%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 437.24=100%
2) x=1.41%
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:
437.24/x=100%/1.41%
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 1.41% of 437.24

437.24/x=100/1.41
(437.24/x)*x=(100/1.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
437.24=70.921985815603*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (70.921985815603) to get x
437.24/70.921985815603=x
6.165084=x
x=6.165084

now we have:
1.41% of 437.24=6.165084
