What is 0.005 percent of 32800000000 - 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 32800000000 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 32800000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 32800000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.005% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.005%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 32800000000=100%
2) x=0.005%
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:
32800000000/x=100%/0.005%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.005% of 32800000000

32800000000/x=100/0.005
(32800000000/x)*x=(100/0.005)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
32800000000=20000*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (20000) to get x
32800000000/20000=x
1640000=x
x=1640000

now we have:
0.005% of 32800000000=1640000
