What is 57700 percent of 49990 - 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 49990 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 49990 is 100%, so we can write it down as 49990=100%.
4. We know, that x is 57700% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=57700%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 49990=100%
2) x=57700%
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:
49990/x=100%/57700%
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 57700% of 49990

49990/x=100/57700
(49990/x)*x=(100/57700)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
49990=0.0017331022530329*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0017331022530329) to get x
49990/0.0017331022530329=x
28844230=x
x=28844230

now we have:
57700% of 49990=28844230
