23 is what percent of 350000000 - 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 350000000 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 350000000, so we can write it down as 100%=350000000.
4. We know, that x% equals 23 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=23.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=350000000
2) x%=23
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%=350000000/23
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 23 is what percent of 350000000

100%/x%=350000000/23
(100/x)*x=(350000000/23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15217391.304348*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15217391.304348) to get x
100/15217391.304348=x
6.5714285714286E-6=x
x=6.5714285714286E-6

now we have:
23 is 6.5714285714286E-6% of 350000000
