What is 17646 percent of 55000 - 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 55000 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 55000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 55000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 17646% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=17646%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 55000=100%
2) x=17646%
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:
55000/x=100%/17646%
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 17646% of 55000

55000/x=100/17646
(55000/x)*x=(100/17646)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
55000=0.0056670066870679*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0056670066870679) to get x
55000/0.0056670066870679=x
9705300=x
x=9705300

now we have:
17646% of 55000=9705300
