29 is what percent of 303000 - 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 303000 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 303000, so we can write it down as 100%=303000.
4. We know, that x% equals 29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=303000
2) x%=29
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%=303000/29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 29 is what percent of 303000

100%/x%=303000/29
(100/x)*x=(303000/29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10448.275862069*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10448.275862069) to get x
100/10448.275862069=x
0.0095709570957096=x
x=0.0095709570957096

now we have:
29 is 0.0095709570957096% of 303000
