What is 2.06 percent of 75.24 - 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 75.24 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 75.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 75.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.06% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.06%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 75.24=100%
2) x=2.06%
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:
75.24/x=100%/2.06%
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 2.06% of 75.24

75.24/x=100/2.06
(75.24/x)*x=(100/2.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
75.24=48.543689320388*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (48.543689320388) to get x
75.24/48.543689320388=x
1.549944=x
x=1.549944

now we have:
2.06% of 75.24=1.549944
