65.5 is what percent of 1100000 - 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 1100000 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 1100000, so we can write it down as 100%=1100000.
4. We know, that x% equals 65.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=65.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1100000
2) x%=65.5
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%=1100000/65.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 65.5 is what percent of 1100000

100%/x%=1100000/65.5
(100/x)*x=(1100000/65.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16793.893129771*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16793.893129771) to get x
100/16793.893129771=x
0.0059545454545455=x
x=0.0059545454545455

now we have:
65.5 is 0.0059545454545455% of 1100000
