What is 4.85 percent of 680.5 - 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 680.5 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 680.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 680.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.85% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.85%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 680.5=100%
2) x=4.85%
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:
680.5/x=100%/4.85%
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 4.85% of 680.5

680.5/x=100/4.85
(680.5/x)*x=(100/4.85)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
680.5=20.618556701031*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (20.618556701031) to get x
680.5/20.618556701031=x
33.00425=x
x=33.00425

now we have:
4.85% of 680.5=33.00425
