What is 10.37 percent of 2844 - 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 2844 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 2844 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2844=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10.37% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10.37%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2844=100%
2) x=10.37%
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:
2844/x=100%/10.37%
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 10.37% of 2844

2844/x=100/10.37
(2844/x)*x=(100/10.37)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2844=9.6432015429122*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.6432015429122) to get x
2844/9.6432015429122=x
294.9228=x
x=294.9228

now we have:
10.37% of 2844=294.9228
