0.0001769 is what percent of 3.5E-5 - 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 3.5E-5 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 100% equals 3.5E-5, so we can write it down as 100%=3.5E-5.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.0001769 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.0001769.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.5E-5
2) x%=0.0001769
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:
100%/x%=3.5E-5/0.0001769
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.0001769 is what percent of 3.5E-5

100%/x%=3.5E-5/0.0001769
(100/x)*x=(3.5E-5/0.0001769)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.19785189372527*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.19785189372527) to get x
100/0.19785189372527=x
505.42857142857=x
x=505.42857142857

now we have:
0.0001769 is 505.42857142857% of 3.5E-5
