What is 4.27 percent of 671 - 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 671 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 671 is 100%, so we can write it down as 671=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.27% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.27%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 671=100%
2) x=4.27%
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:
671/x=100%/4.27%
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 4.27% of 671

671/x=100/4.27
(671/x)*x=(100/4.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
671=23.419203747073*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (23.419203747073) to get x
671/23.419203747073=x
28.6517=x
x=28.6517

now we have:
4.27% of 671=28.6517
