What is 2.3 percent of 830.05 - 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 830.05 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 830.05 is 100%, so we can write it down as 830.05=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.3% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.3%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 830.05=100%
2) x=2.3%
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:
830.05/x=100%/2.3%
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 2.3% of 830.05

830.05/x=100/2.3
(830.05/x)*x=(100/2.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
830.05=43.478260869565*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (43.478260869565) to get x
830.05/43.478260869565=x
19.09115=x
x=19.09115

now we have:
2.3% of 830.05=19.09115
