88 is what percent of 127000000 - 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 127000000 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 127000000, so we can write it down as 100%=127000000.
4. We know, that x% equals 88 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=88.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=127000000
2) x%=88
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%=127000000/88
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 88 is what percent of 127000000

100%/x%=127000000/88
(100/x)*x=(127000000/88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1443181.8181818*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1443181.8181818) to get x
100/1443181.8181818=x
6.9291338582677E-5=x
x=6.9291338582677E-5

now we have:
88 is 6.9291338582677E-5% of 127000000
