What is 2.29 percent of 1083 - 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 1083 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 1083 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1083=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.29% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.29%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1083=100%
2) x=2.29%
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:
1083/x=100%/2.29%
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 2.29% of 1083

1083/x=100/2.29
(1083/x)*x=(100/2.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1083=43.668122270742*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (43.668122270742) to get x
1083/43.668122270742=x
24.8007=x
x=24.8007

now we have:
2.29% of 1083=24.8007
