What is 4.31125 percent of 1000 - 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 1000 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 1000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.31125% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.31125%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1000=100%
2) x=4.31125%
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:
1000/x=100%/4.31125%
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 4.31125% of 1000

1000/x=100/4.31125
(1000/x)*x=(100/4.31125)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1000=23.195129022905*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (23.195129022905) to get x
1000/23.195129022905=x
43.1125=x
x=43.1125

now we have:
4.31125% of 1000=43.1125
