2.46 is what percent of 110000 - 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 110000 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 110000, so we can write it down as 100%=110000.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.46 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.46.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=110000
2) x%=2.46
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%=110000/2.46
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.46 is what percent of 110000

100%/x%=110000/2.46
(100/x)*x=(110000/2.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=44715.447154472*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (44715.447154472) to get x
100/44715.447154472=x
0.0022363636363636=x
x=0.0022363636363636

now we have:
2.46 is 0.0022363636363636% of 110000
