What is 4300 percent of 15500 - 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 15500 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 15500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 15500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4300% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4300%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 15500=100%
2) x=4300%
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:
15500/x=100%/4300%
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 4300% of 15500

15500/x=100/4300
(15500/x)*x=(100/4300)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
15500=0.023255813953488*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.023255813953488) to get x
15500/0.023255813953488=x
666500=x
x=666500

now we have:
4300% of 15500=666500
