What is 1945 percent of 142 - 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 142 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 142 is 100%, so we can write it down as 142=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1945% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1945%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 142=100%
2) x=1945%
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:
142/x=100%/1945%
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 1945% of 142

142/x=100/1945
(142/x)*x=(100/1945)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
142=0.051413881748072*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.051413881748072) to get x
142/0.051413881748072=x
2761.9=x
x=2761.9

now we have:
1945% of 142=2761.9
