What is 0.984 percent of 12.3 - 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 12.3 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 12.3 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12.3=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.984% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.984%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12.3=100%
2) x=0.984%
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:
12.3/x=100%/0.984%
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 0.984% of 12.3

12.3/x=100/0.984
(12.3/x)*x=(100/0.984)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12.3=101.62601626016*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (101.62601626016) to get x
12.3/101.62601626016=x
0.121032=x
x=0.121032

now we have:
0.984% of 12.3=0.121032
