0.62 is what percent of 3027 - 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 3027 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 100% equals 3027, so we can write it down as 100%=3027.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.62 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.62.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3027
2) x%=0.62
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:
100%/x%=3027/0.62
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.62 is what percent of 3027

100%/x%=3027/0.62
(100/x)*x=(3027/0.62)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4882.2580645161*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4882.2580645161) to get x
100/4882.2580645161=x
0.020482325735051=x
x=0.020482325735051

now we have:
0.62 is 0.020482325735051% of 3027
