Answer:

. We assume, that the number 1760 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 1760 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1760=100%.

4. We know, that x is 2.5% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2.5%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 1760=100%

2) x=2.5%

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:

1760/x=100%/2.5%

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 2.5% of 1760

1760/x=100/2.5

(1760/x)*x=(100/2.5)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

1760=40*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (40) to get x

1760/40=x

44=x

x=44
