What is 69.3333 percent of 4240 - 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 4240 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 4240 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4240=100%.
4. We know, that x is 69.3333% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=69.3333%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4240=100%
2) x=69.3333%
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:
4240/x=100%/69.3333%
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 69.3333% of 4240

4240/x=100/69.3333
(4240/x)*x=(100/69.3333)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4240=1.4423083857252*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.4423083857252) to get x
4240/1.4423083857252=x
2939.73192=x
x=2939.73192

now we have:
69.3333% of 4240=2939.73192
