What is 47.08 percent of 24000 - 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 24000 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 24000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 24000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 47.08% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=47.08%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 24000=100%
2) x=47.08%
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:
24000/x=100%/47.08%
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 47.08% of 24000

24000/x=100/47.08
(24000/x)*x=(100/47.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
24000=2.1240441801189*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.1240441801189) to get x
24000/2.1240441801189=x
11299.2=x
x=11299.2

now we have:
47.08% of 24000=11299.2
