What is 94.23 percent of 500000000 - 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 500000000 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 500000000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 500000000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 94.23% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=94.23%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 500000000=100%
2) x=94.23%
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:
500000000/x=100%/94.23%
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 94.23% of 500000000

500000000/x=100/94.23
(500000000/x)*x=(100/94.23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
500000000=1.0612331529237*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0612331529237) to get x
500000000/1.0612331529237=x
471150000=x
x=471150000

now we have:
94.23% of 500000000=471150000
