54 is what percent of 51000000 - 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 51000000 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 51000000, so we can write it down as 100%=51000000.
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%=51000000
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%=51000000/54
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 51000000

100%/x%=51000000/54
(100/x)*x=(51000000/54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=944444.44444444*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (944444.44444444) to get x
100/944444.44444444=x
0.00010588235294118=x
x=0.00010588235294118

now we have:
54 is 0.00010588235294118% of 51000000
