What is 0.119 percent of 1038.99 - 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 1038.99 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 1038.99 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1038.99=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.119% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.119%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1038.99=100%
2) x=0.119%
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:
1038.99/x=100%/0.119%
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 0.119% of 1038.99

1038.99/x=100/0.119
(1038.99/x)*x=(100/0.119)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1038.99=840.33613445378*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (840.33613445378) to get x
1038.99/840.33613445378=x
1.2363981=x
x=1.2363981

now we have:
