54 is what percent of 3300000 - 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 3300000 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 3300000, so we can write it down as 100%=3300000.
4. We know, that x% equals 54 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=54.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3300000
2) x%=54
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%=3300000/54
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 54 is what percent of 3300000

100%/x%=3300000/54
(100/x)*x=(3300000/54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=61111.111111111*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (61111.111111111) to get x
100/61111.111111111=x
0.0016363636363636=x
x=0.0016363636363636

now we have:
54 is 0.0016363636363636% of 3300000
