What is 2.69 percent of 1.073 - 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 1.073 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 1.073 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.073=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.69% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.69%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.073=100%
2) x=2.69%
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:
1.073/x=100%/2.69%
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 2.69% of 1.073

1.073/x=100/2.69
(1.073/x)*x=(100/2.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.073=37.174721189591*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (37.174721189591) to get x
1.073/37.174721189591=x
0.0288637=x
x=0.0288637

now we have:
2.69% of 1.073=0.0288637
