What is 10000 percent of 53438 - 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 53438 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 53438 is 100%, so we can write it down as 53438=100%.
4. We know, that x is 10000% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=10000%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 53438=100%
2) x=10000%
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:
53438/x=100%/10000%
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 10000% of 53438

53438/x=100/10000
(53438/x)*x=(100/10000)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
53438=0.01*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.01) to get x
53438/0.01=x
5343800=x
x=5343800

now we have:
10000% of 53438=5343800
