What is 4.1 percent of 25800 - 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 25800 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 25800 is 100%, so we can write it down as 25800=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.1% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.1%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 25800=100%
2) x=4.1%
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:
25800/x=100%/4.1%
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 4.1% of 25800

25800/x=100/4.1
(25800/x)*x=(100/4.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
25800=24.390243902439*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.390243902439) to get x
25800/24.390243902439=x
1057.8=x
x=1057.8

now we have:
4.1% of 25800=1057.8
