What is 11000 percent of 17000 - 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 17000 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 17000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 17000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 11000% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=11000%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 17000=100%
2) x=11000%
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:
17000/x=100%/11000%
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 11000% of 17000

17000/x=100/11000
(17000/x)*x=(100/11000)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
17000=0.00909090909091*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.00909090909091) to get x
17000/0.00909090909091=x
1870000=x
x=1870000

now we have:
11000% of 17000=1870000
