What is 3.46 percent of 4038.04 - 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 4038.04 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 4038.04 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4038.04=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.46% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.46%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4038.04=100%
2) x=3.46%
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:
4038.04/x=100%/3.46%
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 3.46% of 4038.04

4038.04/x=100/3.46
(4038.04/x)*x=(100/3.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4038.04=28.901734104046*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.901734104046) to get x
4038.04/28.901734104046=x
139.716184=x
x=139.716184

now we have:
3.46% of 4038.04=139.716184
