What is 3.67 percent of 14988 - 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 14988 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 14988 is 100%, so we can write it down as 14988=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.67% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.67%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 14988=100%
2) x=3.67%
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:
14988/x=100%/3.67%
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 3.67% of 14988

14988/x=100/3.67
(14988/x)*x=(100/3.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
14988=27.24795640327*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (27.24795640327) to get x
14988/27.24795640327=x
550.0596=x
x=550.0596

now we have:
3.67% of 14988=550.0596
