6.98 is what percent of 141000 - 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 141000 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 141000, so we can write it down as 100%=141000.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.98 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.98.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=141000
2) x%=6.98
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%=141000/6.98
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.98 is what percent of 141000

100%/x%=141000/6.98
(100/x)*x=(141000/6.98)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=20200.573065903*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (20200.573065903) to get x
100/20200.573065903=x
0.0049503546099291=x
x=0.0049503546099291

now we have:
6.98 is 0.0049503546099291% of 141000
