What is 3.38 percent of 66.04 - 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 66.04 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 66.04 is 100%, so we can write it down as 66.04=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.38% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.38%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 66.04=100%
2) x=3.38%
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:
66.04/x=100%/3.38%
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 3.38% of 66.04

66.04/x=100/3.38
(66.04/x)*x=(100/3.38)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
66.04=29.585798816568*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (29.585798816568) to get x
66.04/29.585798816568=x
2.232152=x
x=2.232152

now we have:
3.38% of 66.04=2.232152
