59.3 is what percent of 1000000 - 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 1000000 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 1000000, so we can write it down as 100%=1000000.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1000000
2) x%=59.3
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%=1000000/59.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.3 is what percent of 1000000

100%/x%=1000000/59.3
(100/x)*x=(1000000/59.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16863.406408094*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16863.406408094) to get x
100/16863.406408094=x
0.00593=x
x=0.00593

now we have:
59.3 is 0.00593% of 1000000
