What is 5.75 percent of 2332 - 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 2332 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 2332 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2332=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.75%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2332=100%
2) x=5.75%
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:
2332/x=100%/5.75%
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 5.75% of 2332

2332/x=100/5.75
(2332/x)*x=(100/5.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2332=17.391304347826*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.391304347826) to get x
2332/17.391304347826=x
134.09=x
x=134.09

now we have:
5.75% of 2332=134.09
