What is 34340 percent of 4.2 - 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 4.2 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 4.2 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4.2=100%.
4. We know, that x is 34340% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=34340%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4.2=100%
2) x=34340%
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:
4.2/x=100%/34340%
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 34340% of 4.2

4.2/x=100/34340
(4.2/x)*x=(100/34340)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4.2=0.0029120559114735*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0029120559114735) to get x
4.2/0.0029120559114735=x
1442.28=x
x=1442.28

now we have:
34340% of 4.2=1442.28
