What is 0.179 percent of 9 - 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 9 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 9 is 100%, so we can write it down as 9=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.179% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.179%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 9=100%
2) x=0.179%
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:
9/x=100%/0.179%
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 0.179% of 9

9/x=100/0.179
(9/x)*x=(100/0.179)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
9=558.65921787709*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (558.65921787709) to get x
9/558.65921787709=x
0.01611=x
x=0.01611

now we have:
0.179% of 9=0.01611
