12150 is what percent of 1 - 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 1 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 1, so we can write it down as 100%=1.
4. We know, that x% equals 12150 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12150.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1
2) x%=12150
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%=1/12150
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12150 is what percent of 1

100%/x%=1/12150
(100/x)*x=(1/12150)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.2304526748971E-5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.2304526748971E-5) to get x
100/8.2304526748971E-5=x
1215000=x
x=1215000

now we have:
12150 is 1215000% of 1
