What is 2.328 percent of 5.55 - 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 5.55 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 5.55 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5.55=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.328% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.328%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5.55=100%
2) x=2.328%
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:
5.55/x=100%/2.328%
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 2.328% of 5.55

5.55/x=100/2.328
(5.55/x)*x=(100/2.328)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5.55=42.955326460481*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (42.955326460481) to get x
5.55/42.955326460481=x
0.129204=x
x=0.129204

now we have:
2.328% of 5.55=0.129204
