What is 4 percent of 53352 - 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 53352 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 53352 is 100%, so we can write it down as 53352=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 53352=100%
2) x=4%
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:
53352/x=100%/4%
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 4% of 53352

53352/x=100/4
(53352/x)*x=(100/4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
53352=25*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (25) to get x
53352/25=x
2134.08=x
x=2134.08

now we have:
4% of 53352=2134.08
