What is 0.0175 percent of 160100 - 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 160100 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 160100 is 100%, so we can write it down as 160100=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.0175% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.0175%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 160100=100%
2) x=0.0175%
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:
160100/x=100%/0.0175%
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 0.0175% of 160100

160100/x=100/0.0175
(160100/x)*x=(100/0.0175)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
160100=5714.2857142857*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5714.2857142857) to get x
160100/5714.2857142857=x
28.0175=x
x=28.0175

now we have:
0.0175% of 160100=28.0175
