What is 7700 percent of 37900 - 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 37900 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 37900 is 100%, so we can write it down as 37900=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7700% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7700%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 37900=100%
2) x=7700%
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:
37900/x=100%/7700%
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 7700% of 37900

37900/x=100/7700
(37900/x)*x=(100/7700)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
37900=0.012987012987013*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.012987012987013) to get x
37900/0.012987012987013=x
2918300=x
x=2918300

now we have:
7700% of 37900=2918300
