Let's cross out some of these zeros to make this easier to read. We can do this because they are both multiples of 10 and as long as we cross out the same amount of 0's in both numbers.

70,000,000

7,000,000,000 

So our new question is, "What percentage is 7 of 700?"

 

To figure this out, we need to divide 7 by 700.

We get 0.01. To turn this into a percentage, move the decimal over two places to the right, and add a percent!

1%

 

So 70,000,000 is 1% of 7,000,000,000.

Estimation: 1%.

I am not that sure, but that is my estimation.

How did I cross them out mathematically, or how did I cross them out on this website?

I explained how I was able to cross them out mathematically in my post. I think your probably asking how to do it on this site though.

To cross out a number/word on this website, type in what you want to crossout. 

Then highlight the word/numbers by left clicking, draging over the word then stop clicking.

Go to Format, then click strikethrough, and it will cross out those numbers/words!

To un-strikethrough them, you basically just repeat the steps with a crossed-out word.
