What is 11.57 percent of 3000000 - 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 3000000 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 3000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 11.57% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=11.57%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3000000=100%
2) x=11.57%
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:
3000000/x=100%/11.57%
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 11.57% of 3000000

3000000/x=100/11.57
(3000000/x)*x=(100/11.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3000000=8.6430423509075*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.6430423509075) to get x
3000000/8.6430423509075=x
347100=x
x=347100

now we have:
11.57% of 3000000=347100
