What is 33.17 percent of 6.8 - 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 6.8 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 6.8 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6.8=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33.17% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33.17%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6.8=100%
2) x=33.17%
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:
6.8/x=100%/33.17%
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 33.17% of 6.8

6.8/x=100/33.17
(6.8/x)*x=(100/33.17)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6.8=3.014772384685*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.014772384685) to get x
6.8/3.014772384685=x
2.25556=x
x=2.25556

now we have:
33.17% of 6.8=2.25556
