1.36 is what percent of 16649 - 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 16649 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 16649, so we can write it down as 100%=16649.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.36 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.36.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=16649
2) x%=1.36
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%=16649/1.36
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.36 is what percent of 16649

100%/x%=16649/1.36
(100/x)*x=(16649/1.36)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12241.911764706*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12241.911764706) to get x
100/12241.911764706=x
0.008168658778305=x
x=0.008168658778305

now we have:
