987.35 is what percent of 326000 - 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 326000 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 326000, so we can write it down as 100%=326000.
4. We know, that x% equals 987.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=987.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=326000
2) x%=987.35
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%=326000/987.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 987.35 is what percent of 326000

100%/x%=326000/987.35
(100/x)*x=(326000/987.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=330.17673570669*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (330.17673570669) to get x
100/330.17673570669=x
0.30286809815951=x
x=0.30286809815951

now we have:
