What is 0.00714348 percent of 17000 - 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 17000 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 17000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 17000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.00714348% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.00714348%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 17000=100%
2) x=0.00714348%
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:
17000/x=100%/0.00714348%
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 0.00714348% of 17000

17000/x=100/0.00714348
(17000/x)*x=(100/0.00714348)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
17000=13998.779306444*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13998.779306444) to get x
17000/13998.779306444=x
1.2143916=x
x=1.2143916

now we have:
0.00714348% of 17000=1.2143916
