1 is what percent of 10146 - 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 10146 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 100% equals 10146, so we can write it down as 100%=10146.
4. We know, that x% equals 1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10146
2) x%=1
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:
100%/x%=10146/1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1 is what percent of 10146

100%/x%=10146/1
(100/x)*x=(10146/1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10146*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10146) to get x
100/10146=x
0.0098561009264735=x
x=0.0098561009264735

now we have:
1 is 0.0098561009264735% of 10146
