What is 6.31 percent of 372000 - 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 372000 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 372000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 372000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.31% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.31%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 372000=100%
2) x=6.31%
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:
372000/x=100%/6.31%
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 6.31% of 372000

372000/x=100/6.31
(372000/x)*x=(100/6.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
372000=15.847860538827*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.847860538827) to get x
372000/15.847860538827=x
23473.2=x
x=23473.2

now we have:
6.31% of 372000=23473.2
