What is 7.145 percent of 70000000 - 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 70000000 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 70000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 70000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.145% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.145%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 70000000=100%
2) x=7.145%
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:
70000000/x=100%/7.145%
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 7.145% of 70000000

70000000/x=100/7.145
(70000000/x)*x=(100/7.145)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
70000000=13.995801259622*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.995801259622) to get x
70000000/13.995801259622=x
5001500=x
x=5001500

now we have:
7.145% of 70000000=5001500
