What is 0.0143 percent of 16828 - 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 16828 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 16828 is 100%, so we can write it down as 16828=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.0143% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.0143%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 16828=100%
2) x=0.0143%
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:
16828/x=100%/0.0143%
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 0.0143% of 16828

16828/x=100/0.0143
(16828/x)*x=(100/0.0143)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
16828=6993.006993007*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6993.006993007) to get x
16828/6993.006993007=x
2.406404=x
x=2.406404

now we have:
