What is 2970 percent of 57240 - 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 57240 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 57240 is 100%, so we can write it down as 57240=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2970% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2970%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 57240=100%
2) x=2970%
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:
57240/x=100%/2970%
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 2970% of 57240

57240/x=100/2970
(57240/x)*x=(100/2970)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
57240=0.033670033670034*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.033670033670034) to get x
57240/0.033670033670034=x
1700028=x
x=1700028

now we have:
2970% of 57240=1700028
