What is 15.57 percent of 2270 - 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 2270 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 2270 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2270=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15.57% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15.57%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2270=100%
2) x=15.57%
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:
2270/x=100%/15.57%
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 15.57% of 2270

2270/x=100/15.57
(2270/x)*x=(100/15.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2270=6.4226075786769*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.4226075786769) to get x
2270/6.4226075786769=x
353.439=x
x=353.439

now we have:
15.57% of 2270=353.439
