What is 3.8 percent of 94.95 - 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 94.95 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 94.95 is 100%, so we can write it down as 94.95=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.8% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.8%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 94.95=100%
2) x=3.8%
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:
94.95/x=100%/3.8%
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 3.8% of 94.95

94.95/x=100/3.8
(94.95/x)*x=(100/3.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
94.95=26.315789473684*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.315789473684) to get x
94.95/26.315789473684=x
3.6081=x
x=3.6081

now we have:
3.8% of 94.95=3.6081
