What is 0.254 percent of 74880 - 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 74880 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 74880 is 100%, so we can write it down as 74880=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.254% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.254%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 74880=100%
2) x=0.254%
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:
74880/x=100%/0.254%
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 0.254% of 74880

74880/x=100/0.254
(74880/x)*x=(100/0.254)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
74880=393.70078740157*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (393.70078740157) to get x
74880/393.70078740157=x
190.1952=x
x=190.1952

now we have:
0.254% of 74880=190.1952
