What is 7.64 percent of 978000 - 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 978000 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 978000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 978000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.64% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.64%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 978000=100%
2) x=7.64%
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:
978000/x=100%/7.64%
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 7.64% of 978000

978000/x=100/7.64
(978000/x)*x=(100/7.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
978000=13.089005235602*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.089005235602) to get x
978000/13.089005235602=x
74719.2=x
x=74719.2

now we have:
7.64% of 978000=74719.2
