What is 2004 percent of 3681 - 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 3681 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 3681 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3681=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2004% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2004%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3681=100%
2) x=2004%
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:
3681/x=100%/2004%
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 2004% of 3681

3681/x=100/2004
(3681/x)*x=(100/2004)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3681=0.049900199600798*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.049900199600798) to get x
3681/0.049900199600798=x
73767.24=x
x=73767.24

now we have:
2004% of 3681=73767.24
