What is 118 percent of 3026 - 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 3026 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 3026 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3026=100%.
4. We know, that x is 118% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=118%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3026=100%
2) x=118%
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:
3026/x=100%/118%
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 118% of 3026

3026/x=100/118
(3026/x)*x=(100/118)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3026=0.84745762711864*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.84745762711864) to get x
3026/0.84745762711864=x
3570.68=x
x=3570.68

now we have:
118% of 3026=3570.68
