What is 26.88 percent of 2692 - 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 2692 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 2692 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2692=100%.
4. We know, that x is 26.88% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=26.88%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2692=100%
2) x=26.88%
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:
2692/x=100%/26.88%
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 26.88% of 2692

2692/x=100/26.88
(2692/x)*x=(100/26.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2692=3.7202380952381*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.7202380952381) to get x
2692/3.7202380952381=x
723.6096=x
x=723.6096

now we have:
26.88% of 2692=723.6096
