9.43 is what percent of 500000 - 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 500000 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 500000, so we can write it down as 100%=500000.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=500000
2) x%=9.43
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%=500000/9.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.43 is what percent of 500000

100%/x%=500000/9.43
(100/x)*x=(500000/9.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=53022.269353128*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (53022.269353128) to get x
100/53022.269353128=x
0.001886=x
x=0.001886

now we have:
9.43 is 0.001886% of 500000
