What is 49300 percent of 42500 - 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 42500 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 42500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 42500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 49300% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=49300%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 42500=100%
2) x=49300%
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:
42500/x=100%/49300%
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 49300% of 42500

42500/x=100/49300
(42500/x)*x=(100/49300)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
42500=0.0020283975659229*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0020283975659229) to get x
42500/0.0020283975659229=x
20952500=x
x=20952500

now we have:
49300% of 42500=20952500
