What is 97.89 percent of 40670 - 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 40670 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 40670 is 100%, so we can write it down as 40670=100%.
4. We know, that x is 97.89% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=97.89%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 40670=100%
2) x=97.89%
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:
40670/x=100%/97.89%
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 97.89% of 40670

40670/x=100/97.89
(40670/x)*x=(100/97.89)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
40670=1.0215548064154*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0215548064154) to get x
40670/1.0215548064154=x
39811.863=x
x=39811.863

now we have:
97.89% of 40670=39811.863
