15.2 is what percent of 13513000 - 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 13513000 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 13513000, so we can write it down as 100%=13513000.
4. We know, that x% equals 15.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13513000
2) x%=15.2
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%=13513000/15.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 15.2 is what percent of 13513000

100%/x%=13513000/15.2
(100/x)*x=(13513000/15.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=889013.15789474*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (889013.15789474) to get x
100/889013.15789474=x
0.00011248427440243=x
x=0.00011248427440243

now we have:
15.2 is 0.00011248427440243% of 13513000
