What is 2.157 percent of 3000000000 - 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 3000000000 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 3000000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3000000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.157% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.157%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3000000000=100%
2) x=2.157%
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:
3000000000/x=100%/2.157%
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 2.157% of 3000000000

3000000000/x=100/2.157
(3000000000/x)*x=(100/2.157)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
3000000000=46.360686138155*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (46.360686138155) to get x
3000000000/46.360686138155=x
64710000=x
x=64710000

now we have:
2.157% of 3000000000=64710000
