What is 2.1 percent of 10671.6 - 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 10671.6 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 10671.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 10671.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.1% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.1%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 10671.6=100%
2) x=2.1%
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:
10671.6/x=100%/2.1%
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 2.1% of 10671.6

10671.6/x=100/2.1
(10671.6/x)*x=(100/2.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
10671.6=47.619047619048*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (47.619047619048) to get x
10671.6/47.619047619048=x
224.1036=x
x=224.1036

now we have:
2.1% of 10671.6=224.1036
