What is 43.1 percent of 297000000 - 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 297000000 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 297000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 297000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 43.1% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=43.1%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 297000000=100%
2) x=43.1%
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:
297000000/x=100%/43.1%
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 43.1% of 297000000

297000000/x=100/43.1
(297000000/x)*x=(100/43.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
297000000=2.3201856148492*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3201856148492) to get x
297000000/2.3201856148492=x
128007000=x
x=128007000

now we have:
43.1% of 297000000=128007000
