What is 1.492 percent of 1.8 - 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 1.8 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 1.8 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.8=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.492% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.492%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.8=100%
2) x=1.492%
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:
1.8/x=100%/1.492%
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 1.492% of 1.8

1.8/x=100/1.492
(1.8/x)*x=(100/1.492)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.8=67.024128686327*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (67.024128686327) to get x
1.8/67.024128686327=x
0.026856=x
x=0.026856

now we have:
1.492% of 1.8=0.026856
