What is 15.34 percent of 900000 - 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 900000 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 900000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 900000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15.34% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15.34%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 900000=100%
2) x=15.34%
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:
900000/x=100%/15.34%
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 15.34% of 900000

900000/x=100/15.34
(900000/x)*x=(100/15.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
900000=6.5189048239896*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.5189048239896) to get x
900000/6.5189048239896=x
138060=x
x=138060

now we have:
15.34% of 900000=138060
