What is 1.6035 percent of 18 - 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 18 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 18 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.6035% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.6035%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18=100%
2) x=1.6035%
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:
18/x=100%/1.6035%
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 1.6035% of 18

18/x=100/1.6035
(18/x)*x=(100/1.6035)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18=62.363579669473*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (62.363579669473) to get x
18/62.363579669473=x
0.28863=x
x=0.28863

now we have:
1.6035% of 18=0.28863
