What is 3.83 percent of 1.4 - 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 1.4 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 1.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.83% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.83%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.4=100%
2) x=3.83%
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:
1.4/x=100%/3.83%
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 3.83% of 1.4

1.4/x=100/3.83
(1.4/x)*x=(100/3.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.4=26.109660574413*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.109660574413) to get x
1.4/26.109660574413=x
0.05362=x
x=0.05362

now we have:
3.83% of 1.4=0.05362
