What is 6.25 percent of 44460 - 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 44460 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 44460 is 100%, so we can write it down as 44460=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.25%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 44460=100%
2) x=6.25%
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:
44460/x=100%/6.25%
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 6.25% of 44460

44460/x=100/6.25
(44460/x)*x=(100/6.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
44460=16*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16) to get x
44460/16=x
2778.75=x
x=2778.75

now we have:
6.25% of 44460=2778.75
