50.7 is what percent of 97200 - 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 97200 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 97200, so we can write it down as 100%=97200.
4. We know, that x% equals 50.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=50.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=97200
2) x%=50.7
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%=97200/50.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 50.7 is what percent of 97200

100%/x%=97200/50.7
(100/x)*x=(97200/50.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1917.1597633136*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1917.1597633136) to get x
100/1917.1597633136=x
0.05216049382716=x
x=0.05216049382716

now we have:
50.7 is 0.05216049382716% of 97200
