26 is what percent of 164000000 - 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 164000000 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 164000000, so we can write it down as 100%=164000000.
4. We know, that x% equals 26 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=26.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=164000000
2) x%=26
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%=164000000/26
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 26 is what percent of 164000000

100%/x%=164000000/26
(100/x)*x=(164000000/26)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=6307692.3076923*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6307692.3076923) to get x
100/6307692.3076923=x
1.5853658536585E-5=x
x=1.5853658536585E-5

now we have:
26 is 1.5853658536585E-5% of 164000000
