What is 7.27 percent of 5340 - 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 5340 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 5340 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5340=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.27% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.27%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5340=100%
2) x=7.27%
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:
5340/x=100%/7.27%
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 7.27% of 5340

5340/x=100/7.27
(5340/x)*x=(100/7.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5340=13.755158184319*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.755158184319) to get x
5340/13.755158184319=x
388.218=x
x=388.218

now we have:
7.27% of 5340=388.218
