490500 is what percent of 9 - 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 9 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 9, so we can write it down as 100%=9.
4. We know, that x% equals 490500 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=490500.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9
2) x%=490500
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%=9/490500
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 490500 is what percent of 9

100%/x%=9/490500
(100/x)*x=(9/490500)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.8348623853211E-5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8348623853211E-5) to get x
100/1.8348623853211E-5=x
5450000=x
x=5450000

now we have:
490500 is 5450000% of 9
