What is 0.633 percent of 15.9 - 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 15.9 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 15.9 is 100%, so we can write it down as 15.9=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.633% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.633%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 15.9=100%
2) x=0.633%
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:
15.9/x=100%/0.633%
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 0.633% of 15.9

15.9/x=100/0.633
(15.9/x)*x=(100/0.633)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
15.9=157.97788309637*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (157.97788309637) to get x
15.9/157.97788309637=x
0.100647=x
x=0.100647

now we have:
0.633% of 15.9=0.100647
