World population currently around 7.865 billion (7,865,000,000 give or take, whatever)
a certain masonic installation in Georgia says - 'Keep the world population under 500,000,000 in balance with nature'
what percentage of 7.865 billion is 500 million.
the other side of that is, what is 30% of 7.865 billion - Because we keep getting smashed around with 'hurrrr 70% vaxinayshuns for dah herds immunity and good boy points' so im wondering how close to that world population limit goal all these euthanizations will get us.
Yes, but even minor differences in order of operations can help math retards sometimes, because their brains are basically illiterate with numbers in the first place. A 100% is easy for them to conceptualize, divided by the total amount they're working with (7.86B here), multiplied by the target number (500M), to give them whatever % they're looking for. If they wanted to work backwards to get the amount instead of a percent, just flip them. (7.86B/100)x6.35= ~500M
For these people 7.86B/500M can already cause an 'error does not compute' in their brains because they don't understand why they need to do that or what that's accomplishing. If they dont' understand each step, they wont retain the information, that's why I offered an alternative.

I find getting the math wrong can be an excellent debate strategy. You present incorrect math,they'll do the math themselves to "prove you wrong",but by doing so,they now have a number they agree is correct. Helps with those idiots who demand you "prove your numbers".
or.. right... or.... i could look at the number i got to begin with... and knowing im a dumbass and sometimes get things wrong and its a big number... asked for a bit of backup. and got it.
legend thanks, its what i was after. im utter shit with fractions.
theres a bunch of herp derping down the bottom but for fucks sake massive difference between counting up my bills and paying em off and keeping my damn petrol tank filled and trying to calculate the rate of mass extermination of the human species lol.

500,000,000 / 7,865,000,000 = 0.06357
0.06357 x 100 = 6.357%

500m out of 7.865b is the same as X out of 100.
Solve for X by cross-multiplying (what you described).
Just trying to help OP!

small number divided by big number times 100.

6.357279084551812% left over after removing 93.64272091544818% of the population.
30% of 7.865B is 2,359,500,000, so a good chunk of the way there but not quite there yet.
