What is 34.84 percent of 5740 - 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 5740 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 5740 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5740=100%.
4. We know, that x is 34.84% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=34.84%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5740=100%
2) x=34.84%
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:
5740/x=100%/34.84%
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 34.84% of 5740

5740/x=100/34.84
(5740/x)*x=(100/34.84)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5740=2.8702640642939*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.8702640642939) to get x
5740/2.8702640642939=x
1999.816=x
x=1999.816

now we have:
34.84% of 5740=1999.816
