1.5 is what percent of 13663 - 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 13663 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 13663, so we can write it down as 100%=13663.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13663
2) x%=1.5
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%=13663/1.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.5 is what percent of 13663

100%/x%=13663/1.5
(100/x)*x=(13663/1.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9108.6666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9108.6666666667) to get x
100/9108.6666666667=x
0.010978555222133=x
x=0.010978555222133

now we have:
1.5 is 0.010978555222133% of 13663
