What is 33300 percent of 500 - 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 500 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 500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 33300% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=33300%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 500=100%
2) x=33300%
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:
500/x=100%/33300%
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 33300% of 500

500/x=100/33300
(500/x)*x=(100/33300)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
500=0.003003003003003*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.003003003003003) to get x
500/0.003003003003003=x
166500=x
x=166500

now we have:
33300% of 500=166500
