What is 42700 percent of 35300 - 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 35300 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 35300 is 100%, so we can write it down as 35300=100%.
4. We know, that x is 42700% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=42700%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 35300=100%
2) x=42700%
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:
35300/x=100%/42700%
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 42700% of 35300

35300/x=100/42700
(35300/x)*x=(100/42700)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
35300=0.0023419203747073*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0023419203747073) to get x
35300/0.0023419203747073=x
15073100=x
x=15073100

now we have:
42700% of 35300=15073100
