What is 50 percent of 4107 - 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 4107 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 4107 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4107=100%.
4. We know, that x is 50% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=50%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4107=100%
2) x=50%
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:
4107/x=100%/50%
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 50% of 4107

4107/x=100/50
(4107/x)*x=(100/50)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4107=2*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2) to get x
4107/2=x
2053.5=x
x=2053.5

now we have:
50% of 4107=2053.5
