1 is what percent of 68479 - 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 68479 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 68479, so we can write it down as 100%=68479.
4. We know, that x% equals 1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=68479
2) x%=1
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%=68479/1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1 is what percent of 68479

100%/x%=68479/1
(100/x)*x=(68479/1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=68479*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (68479) to get x
100/68479=x
0.0014603016983309=x
x=0.0014603016983309

now we have:
1 is 0.0014603016983309% of 68479
