21.48 is what percent of 328000000 - 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 328000000 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 328000000, so we can write it down as 100%=328000000.
4. We know, that x% equals 21.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=21.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=328000000
2) x%=21.48
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%=328000000/21.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 21.48 is what percent of 328000000

100%/x%=328000000/21.48
(100/x)*x=(328000000/21.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15270018.621974*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15270018.621974) to get x
100/15270018.621974=x
6.5487804878049E-6=x
x=6.5487804878049E-6

now we have:
21.48 is 6.5487804878049E-6% of 328000000
