6 is what percent of 352000 - 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 352000 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 352000, so we can write it down as 100%=352000.
4. We know, that x% equals 6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=352000
2) x%=6
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%=352000/6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6 is what percent of 352000

100%/x%=352000/6
(100/x)*x=(352000/6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=58666.666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (58666.666666667) to get x
100/58666.666666667=x
0.0017045454545455=x
x=0.0017045454545455

now we have:
6 is 0.0017045454545455% of 352000
