What is 7.08 percent of 40677 - 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 40677 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 40677 is 100%, so we can write it down as 40677=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.08% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.08%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 40677=100%
2) x=7.08%
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:
40677/x=100%/7.08%
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 7.08% of 40677

40677/x=100/7.08
(40677/x)*x=(100/7.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
40677=14.124293785311*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.124293785311) to get x
40677/14.124293785311=x
2879.9316=x
x=2879.9316

now we have:
7.08% of 40677=2879.9316
