Answer:
2.4 percent *244 =
(2.4:100)*244 =
(2.4*244):100 =
585.6:100 = 5.856
Explanation:
Percentage solution with steps:
Step 1: Our output value is 244.
Step 2: We represent the unknown value with $x$.
Step 3: From step 1 above,$244=100\%$.
Step 4: Similarly, $x=2.4\%$.
Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:
$244=100\%(1)$.
$x=2.4\%(2)$.
Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have
$\frac{244}{x}=\frac{100\%}{2.4\%}$
Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives
$\frac{x}{244}=\frac{2.4}{100}$
\frac{x}{244}=\frac{2.4}{100}
