What is 1143 percent of 2 - 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 2 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 2 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1143% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1143%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2=100%
2) x=1143%
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:
2/x=100%/1143%
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 1143% of 2

2/x=100/1143
(2/x)*x=(100/1143)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2=0.087489063867017*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.087489063867017) to get x
2/0.087489063867017=x
22.86=x
x=22.86

now we have:
1143% of 2=22.86
