16666.66 is what percent of 1300000 - 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 1300000 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 1300000, so we can write it down as 100%=1300000.
4. We know, that x% equals 16666.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=16666.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1300000
2) x%=16666.66
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%=1300000/16666.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 16666.66 is what percent of 1300000

100%/x%=1300000/16666.66
(100/x)*x=(1300000/16666.66)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=78.000031200012*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (78.000031200012) to get x
100/78.000031200012=x
1.2820507692308=x
x=1.2820507692308

now we have:
16666.66 is 1.2820507692308% of 1300000
