What is 2508 percent of 120000 - 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 120000 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 120000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 120000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2508% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2508%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 120000=100%
2) x=2508%
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:
120000/x=100%/2508%
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 2508% of 120000

120000/x=100/2508
(120000/x)*x=(100/2508)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
120000=0.039872408293461*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.039872408293461) to get x
120000/0.039872408293461=x
3009600=x
x=3009600

now we have:
2508% of 120000=3009600
