What is 7000 percent of 117.4 - 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 117.4 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 117.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 117.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7000% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7000%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 117.4=100%
2) x=7000%
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:
117.4/x=100%/7000%
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 7000% of 117.4

117.4/x=100/7000
(117.4/x)*x=(100/7000)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
117.4=0.014285714285714*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.014285714285714) to get x
117.4/0.014285714285714=x
8218=x
x=8218

now we have:
7000% of 117.4=8218
