What is 68.35 percent of 2.97 - 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 2.97 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 2.97 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.97=100%.
4. We know, that x is 68.35% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=68.35%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.97=100%
2) x=68.35%
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:
2.97/x=100%/68.35%
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 68.35% of 2.97

2.97/x=100/68.35
(2.97/x)*x=(100/68.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.97=1.4630577907827*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4630577907827) to get x
2.97/1.4630577907827=x
2.029995=x
x=2.029995

now we have:
68.35% of 2.97=2.029995
