What is 55.2 percent of 3360 - 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 3360 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 3360 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3360=100%.
4. We know, that x is 55.2% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=55.2%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3360=100%
2) x=55.2%
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:
3360/x=100%/55.2%
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 55.2% of 3360

3360/x=100/55.2
(3360/x)*x=(100/55.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3360=1.8115942028986*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8115942028986) to get x
3360/1.8115942028986=x
1854.72=x
x=1854.72

now we have:
55.2% of 3360=1854.72
