62078.7 is what percent of 370000 - 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 370000 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 370000, so we can write it down as 100%=370000.
4. We know, that x% equals 62078.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=62078.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=370000
2) x%=62078.7
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%=370000/62078.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 62078.7 is what percent of 370000

100%/x%=370000/62078.7
(100/x)*x=(370000/62078.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.9601763567858*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.9601763567858) to get x
100/5.9601763567858=x
16.778027027027=x
x=16.778027027027

now we have:
62078.7 is 16.778027027027% of 370000
