What is 2.97 percent of 67 - 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 67 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 67 is 100%, so we can write it down as 67=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.97% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.97%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 67=100%
2) x=2.97%
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:
67/x=100%/2.97%
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 2.97% of 67

67/x=100/2.97
(67/x)*x=(100/2.97)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
67=33.670033670034*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (33.670033670034) to get x
67/33.670033670034=x
1.9899=x
x=1.9899

now we have:
2.97% of 67=1.9899
