What is 2750 percent of 2009 - 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 2009 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 2009 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2009=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2750% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2750%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2009=100%
2) x=2750%
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:
2009/x=100%/2750%
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 2750% of 2009

2009/x=100/2750
(2009/x)*x=(100/2750)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2009=0.036363636363636*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.036363636363636) to get x
2009/0.036363636363636=x
55247.5=x
x=55247.5

now we have:
2750% of 2009=55247.5
