80 is what percent of 560000 - 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 560000 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 560000, so we can write it down as 100%=560000.
4. We know, that x% equals 80 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=80.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=560000
2) x%=80
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%=560000/80
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 80 is what percent of 560000

100%/x%=560000/80
(100/x)*x=(560000/80)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7000*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7000) to get x
100/7000=x
0.014285714285714=x
x=0.014285714285714

now we have:
80 is 0.014285714285714% of 560000
