What is 0.0059259259259259 percent of 40000 - 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 40000 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 40000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 40000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.0059259259259259% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.0059259259259259%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 40000=100%
2) x=0.0059259259259259%
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:
40000/x=100%/0.0059259259259259%
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 0.0059259259259259% of 40000

40000/x=100/0.0059259259259259
(40000/x)*x=(100/0.0059259259259259)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
40000=16875*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16875) to get x
40000/16875=x
2.3703703703704=x
x=2.3703703703704

now we have:
0.0059259259259259% of 40000=2.3703703703704
