6 is what percent of 7900000 - 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 7900000 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 7900000, so we can write it down as 100%=7900000.
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%=7900000
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%=7900000/6
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 7900000

100%/x%=7900000/6
(100/x)*x=(7900000/6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1316666.6666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1316666.6666667) to get x
100/1316666.6666667=x
7.5949367088608E-5=x
x=7.5949367088608E-5

now we have:
6 is 7.5949367088608E-5% of 7900000
