What is 0.031 percent of 4.125 - 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 4.125 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 4.125 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4.125=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.031% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.031%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4.125=100%
2) x=0.031%
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:
4.125/x=100%/0.031%
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 0.031% of 4.125

4.125/x=100/0.031
(4.125/x)*x=(100/0.031)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4.125=3225.8064516129*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3225.8064516129) to get x
4.125/3225.8064516129=x
0.00127875=x
x=0.00127875

now we have:
0.031% of 4.125=0.00127875
