What is 30.75 percent of 1700000 - 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 1700000 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 1700000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1700000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 30.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=30.75%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1700000=100%
2) x=30.75%
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:
1700000/x=100%/30.75%
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 30.75% of 1700000

1700000/x=100/30.75
(1700000/x)*x=(100/30.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1700000=3.2520325203252*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2520325203252) to get x
1700000/3.2520325203252=x
522750=x
x=522750

now we have:
30.75% of 1700000=522750
