Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let assume that x% = 200,000
Lets assume that 100 % = 131,000,000 because it is the output value:
Therefore we have two equations:
x% = 200,000
100 % =131,000,000
Now observe that the L.H.S of both the equations have same unit. So we can write it as:
100%/x% = 131,000,000/200,000
Now just simply solve the values:
Multiply both sides by x
100/x *x = 131,000,000/200,000 *x
100=655x
Now divide both the sides by 655.
100/655 = 655x/655
100/655=x
0.15267175572519=x
Therefore the answer is 200,000 is 0.15267175572519% of 131,000,000 ....
just an addition to the reply above, which is correct, so to the risk of sounding redundant.
if we take 131,000,000 to be the 100%, what is 200,000 off of it in percentage? Bearing in mind that 1% of 131,000,000 is really 1,310,000, notice we simply chopped off two zeros, but that amount is larger than 200,000 and thus whatever 200,000 is, is less than 1%.
[tex]\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 131000000&100\\ 200000&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{131000000}{200000}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{1310}{2}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 1310x=200\implies x=\cfrac{200}{1310}\implies x\approx 0.1526717557251908[/tex]
