What is 11.36 percent of 3040 - 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 3040 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 3040 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3040=100%.
4. We know, that x is 11.36% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=11.36%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3040=100%
2) x=11.36%
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:
3040/x=100%/11.36%
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 11.36% of 3040

3040/x=100/11.36
(3040/x)*x=(100/11.36)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3040=8.8028169014085*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.8028169014085) to get x
3040/8.8028169014085=x
345.344=x
x=345.344

now we have:
11.36% of 3040=345.344
