What is 0.506 percent of 14.98 - 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 14.98 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 14.98 is 100%, so we can write it down as 14.98=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.506% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.506%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 14.98=100%
2) x=0.506%
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:
14.98/x=100%/0.506%
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 0.506% of 14.98

14.98/x=100/0.506
(14.98/x)*x=(100/0.506)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
14.98=197.62845849802*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (197.62845849802) to get x
14.98/197.62845849802=x
0.0757988=x
x=0.0757988

now we have:
0.506% of 14.98=0.0757988
