What is 0.021 percent of 2500000 - 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 2500000 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 2500000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2500000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.021% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.021%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2500000=100%
2) x=0.021%
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:
2500000/x=100%/0.021%
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 0.021% of 2500000

2500000/x=100/0.021
(2500000/x)*x=(100/0.021)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
2500000=4761.9047619048*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4761.9047619048) to get x
2500000/4761.9047619048=x
525=x
x=525

now we have:
0.021% of 2500000=525
