Answer:
1. We assume, that the number 200 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 200 is 100%, so we can write it down as 200 = 100%.
4. We know, that x is 24% of the output value, so we can write it down as
x = 24%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 200 = 100%
2) x = 24%
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:
200/x = 100%/24%
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 24% of 200
200/x=100/24
(200/x)*x = (100/24)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
200 = 4.16666666667*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.16666666667) to get x
200/4.16666666667 = x
48 = x
x = 48
We have:
24% of 200 = 48
I hope this helps you!!
