0.7 is what percent of 637000 - 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 637000 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 637000, so we can write it down as 100%=637000.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=637000
2) x%=0.7
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%=637000/0.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.7 is what percent of 637000

100%/x%=637000/0.7
(100/x)*x=(637000/0.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=910000*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (910000) to get x
100/910000=x
0.00010989010989011=x
x=0.00010989010989011

now we have:
0.7 is 0.00010989010989011% of 637000
