18 is what percent of 66075 - 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 66075 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 66075, so we can write it down as 100%=66075.
4. We know, that x% equals 18 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=18.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=66075
2) x%=18
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%=66075/18
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 18 is what percent of 66075

100%/x%=66075/18
(100/x)*x=(66075/18)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3670.8333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3670.8333333333) to get x
100/3670.8333333333=x
0.027241770715096=x
x=0.027241770715096

now we have:
18 is 0.027241770715096% of 66075
