What is 2.05 percent of 6379.85 - 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 6379.85 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 6379.85 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6379.85=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.05% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.05%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6379.85=100%
2) x=2.05%
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:
6379.85/x=100%/2.05%
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 2.05% of 6379.85

6379.85/x=100/2.05
(6379.85/x)*x=(100/2.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6379.85=48.780487804878*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (48.780487804878) to get x
6379.85/48.780487804878=x
130.786925=x
x=130.786925

now we have:
2.05% of 6379.85=130.786925
