What is 0.377 percent of 123.6 - 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 123.6 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 123.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 123.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.377% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.377%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 123.6=100%
2) x=0.377%
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:
123.6/x=100%/0.377%
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 0.377% of 123.6

123.6/x=100/0.377
(123.6/x)*x=(100/0.377)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
123.6=265.25198938992*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (265.25198938992) to get x
123.6/265.25198938992=x
0.465972=x
x=0.465972

now we have:
0.377% of 123.6=0.465972
