What is 3.148 percent of 100 - 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 100 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 100 is 100%, so we can write it down as 100=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.148% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.148%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100=100%
2) x=3.148%
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:
100/x=100%/3.148%
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 3.148% of 100

100/x=100/3.148
(100/x)*x=(100/3.148)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=31.766200762389*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (31.766200762389) to get x
100/31.766200762389=x
3.148=x
x=3.148

now we have:
3.148% of 100=3.148
