1 is what percent of 99999.95 - 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 99999.95 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 99999.95, so we can write it down as 100%=99999.95.
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%=99999.95
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%=99999.95/1
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 99999.95

100%/x%=99999.95/1
(100/x)*x=(99999.95/1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=99999.95*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (99999.95) to get x
100/99999.95=x
0.0010000005000002=x
x=0.0010000005000002

now we have:
1 is 0.0010000005000002% of 99999.95
