What is 95.24 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 95.24% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=95.24%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 500000000=100%
2) x=95.24%
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%/95.24%
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 95.24% of 500000000

500000000/x=100/95.24
(500000000/x)*x=(100/95.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
500000000=1.04997900042*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.04997900042) to get x
500000000/1.04997900042=x
476200000=x
x=476200000

now we have:
95.24% of 500000000=476200000
