What is 80.21 percent of 3000 - 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 3000 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 3000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 80.21% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=80.21%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3000=100%
2) x=80.21%
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:
3000/x=100%/80.21%
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 80.21% of 3000

3000/x=100/80.21
(3000/x)*x=(100/80.21)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3000=1.2467273407306*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.2467273407306) to get x
3000/1.2467273407306=x
2406.3=x
x=2406.3

now we have:
80.21% of 3000=2406.3
