What is 0.685 percent of 27000000 - 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 27000000 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 27000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 27000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.685% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.685%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 27000000=100%
2) x=0.685%
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:
27000000/x=100%/0.685%
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 0.685% of 27000000

27000000/x=100/0.685
(27000000/x)*x=(100/0.685)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
27000000=145.98540145985*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (145.98540145985) to get x
27000000/145.98540145985=x
184950=x
x=184950

now we have:
0.685% of 27000000=184950
