What is 4.545 percent of 3 - 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 3 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 3 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.545% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.545%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3=100%
2) x=4.545%
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:
3/x=100%/4.545%
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 4.545% of 3

3/x=100/4.545
(3/x)*x=(100/4.545)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3=22.002200220022*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (22.002200220022) to get x
3/22.002200220022=x
0.13635=x
x=0.13635

now we have:
4.545% of 3=0.13635
