What is 17.68 percent of 41040 - 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 41040 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 41040 is 100%, so we can write it down as 41040=100%.
4. We know, that x is 17.68% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=17.68%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 41040=100%
2) x=17.68%
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:
41040/x=100%/17.68%
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 17.68% of 41040

41040/x=100/17.68
(41040/x)*x=(100/17.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
41040=5.6561085972851*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.6561085972851) to get x
41040/5.6561085972851=x
7255.872=x
x=7255.872

now we have:
17.68% of 41040=7255.872
