52800 is what percent of 5 - 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 5 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 5, so we can write it down as 100%=5.
4. We know, that x% equals 52800 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=52800.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5
2) x%=52800
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%=5/52800
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 52800 is what percent of 5

100%/x%=5/52800
(100/x)*x=(5/52800)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.469696969697E-5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.469696969697E-5) to get x
100/9.469696969697E-5=x
1056000=x
x=1056000

now we have:
52800 is 1056000% of 5
