What is 6.03 percent of 42180 - 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 42180 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 42180 is 100%, so we can write it down as 42180=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.03% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.03%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 42180=100%
2) x=6.03%
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:
42180/x=100%/6.03%
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 6.03% of 42180

42180/x=100/6.03
(42180/x)*x=(100/6.03)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
42180=16.583747927032*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.583747927032) to get x
42180/16.583747927032=x
2543.454=x
x=2543.454

now we have:
6.03% of 42180=2543.454
