What is 2.245 percent of 2.494 - 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 2.494 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 2.494 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.494=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2.245% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.245%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.494=100%
2) x=2.245%
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:
2.494/x=100%/2.245%
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 2.245% of 2.494

2.494/x=100/2.245
(2.494/x)*x=(100/2.245)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2.494=44.543429844098*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (44.543429844098) to get x
2.494/44.543429844098=x
0.0559903=x
x=0.0559903

now we have:
2.245% of 2.494=0.0559903
