What is 5.397 percent of 75000 - 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 75000 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 75000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 75000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.397% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.397%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 75000=100%
2) x=5.397%
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:
75000/x=100%/5.397%
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 5.397% of 75000

75000/x=100/5.397
(75000/x)*x=(100/5.397)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
75000=18.528812303131*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.528812303131) to get x
75000/18.528812303131=x
4047.75=x
x=4047.75

now we have:
5.397% of 75000=4047.75
