1.67 is what percent of 150000 - 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 150000 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 150000, so we can write it down as 100%=150000.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=150000
2) x%=1.67
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%=150000/1.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.67 is what percent of 150000

100%/x%=150000/1.67
(100/x)*x=(150000/1.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=89820.359281437*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (89820.359281437) to get x
100/89820.359281437=x
0.0011133333333333=x
x=0.0011133333333333

now we have:
1.67 is 0.0011133333333333% of 150000
