What is 23.333333 percent of 900 - 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 900 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 900 is 100%, so we can write it down as 900=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.333333% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.333333%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 900=100%
2) x=23.333333%
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:
900/x=100%/23.333333%
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 23.333333% of 900

900/x=100/23.333333
(900/x)*x=(100/23.333333)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
900=4.2857143469388*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.2857143469388) to get x
900/4.2857143469388=x
209.999997=x
x=209.999997

now we have:
23.333333% of 900=209.999997
