64018.5 is what percent of 978000 - 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 978000 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 978000, so we can write it down as 100%=978000.
4. We know, that x% equals 64018.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=64018.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=978000
2) x%=64018.5
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%=978000/64018.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 64018.5 is what percent of 978000

100%/x%=978000/64018.5
(100/x)*x=(978000/64018.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=15.27683404016*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.27683404016) to get x
100/15.27683404016=x
6.5458588957055=x
x=6.5458588957055

now we have:
