What is 0.25 percent of 69900 - 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 69900 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 69900 is 100%, so we can write it down as 69900=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.25% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.25%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 69900=100%
2) x=0.25%
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:
69900/x=100%/0.25%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.25% of 69900

69900/x=100/0.25
(69900/x)*x=(100/0.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
69900=400*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (400) to get x
69900/400=x
174.75=x
x=174.75

now we have:
0.25% of 69900=174.75
