What is 2.054 percent of 2.3 - 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 2.3 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 2.3 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.3=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.054% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.054%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.3=100%
2) x=2.054%
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:
2.3/x=100%/2.054%
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 2.054% of 2.3

2.3/x=100/2.054
(2.3/x)*x=(100/2.054)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.3=48.685491723466*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (48.685491723466) to get x
2.3/48.685491723466=x
0.047242=x
x=0.047242

now we have:
2.054% of 2.3=0.047242
