What is 40670 percent of 5.5 - 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 5.5 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 5.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 40670% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=40670%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5.5=100%
2) x=40670%
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:
5.5/x=100%/40670%
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 40670% of 5.5

5.5/x=100/40670
(5.5/x)*x=(100/40670)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5.5=0.0024588148512417*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0024588148512417) to get x
5.5/0.0024588148512417=x
2236.85=x
x=2236.85

now we have:
40670% of 5.5=2236.85
