ok so lets say that x is the value we are looking for.
If 2000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2000=100%.
We know, that x is 11%, so we can write it down as x=11%.
Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2000=100%
2) x=11%
So we can use this info to make the following equation;
\(\large \frac{2000}{x}=\frac{100%}{11%}\)
Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
Can you solve it?
