What is 0.3478 percent of 46000000 - 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 46000000 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 46000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 46000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.3478% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.3478%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 46000000=100%
2) x=0.3478%
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:
46000000/x=100%/0.3478%
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 0.3478% of 46000000

46000000/x=100/0.3478
(46000000/x)*x=(100/0.3478)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
46000000=287.52156411731*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (287.52156411731) to get x
46000000/287.52156411731=x
159988=x
x=159988

now we have:
0.3478% of 46000000=159988
