What is 0.054 percent of 6400 - 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 6400 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 6400 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6400=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.054% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.054%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6400=100%
2) x=0.054%
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:
6400/x=100%/0.054%
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 0.054% of 6400

6400/x=100/0.054
(6400/x)*x=(100/0.054)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6400=1851.8518518519*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1851.8518518519) to get x
6400/1851.8518518519=x
3.456=x
x=3.456

now we have:
0.054% of 6400=3.456
