What is 0.0023 percent of 55104 - 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 55104 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 55104 is 100%, so we can write it down as 55104=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.0023% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.0023%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 55104=100%
2) x=0.0023%
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:
55104/x=100%/0.0023%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.0023% of 55104

55104/x=100/0.0023
(55104/x)*x=(100/0.0023)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
55104=43478.260869565*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (43478.260869565) to get x
55104/43478.260869565=x
1.267392=x
x=1.267392

now we have:
