What is 1.246 percent of 30000000 - 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 30000000 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 30000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 30000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.246% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.246%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 30000000=100%
2) x=1.246%
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:
30000000/x=100%/1.246%
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 1.246% of 30000000

30000000/x=100/1.246
(30000000/x)*x=(100/1.246)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
30000000=80.256821829856*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (80.256821829856) to get x
30000000/80.256821829856=x
373800=x
x=373800

now we have:
1.246% of 30000000=373800
