What is 3.3333333 percent of 700 - 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 700 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 700 is 100%, so we can write it down as 700=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.3333333% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.3333333%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 700=100%
2) x=3.3333333%
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:
700/x=100%/3.3333333%
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 3.3333333% of 700

700/x=100/3.3333333
(700/x)*x=(100/3.3333333)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
700=30.0000003*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (30.0000003) to get x
700/30.0000003=x
23.3333331=x
x=23.3333331

now we have:
3.3333333% of 700=23.3333331
