What is 180000 percent of 1.62 - 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 1.62 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 1.62 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.62=100%.
4. We know, that x is 180000% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=180000%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.62=100%
2) x=180000%
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:
1.62/x=100%/180000%
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 180000% of 1.62

1.62/x=100/180000
(1.62/x)*x=(100/180000)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.62=0.00055555555555556*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.00055555555555556) to get x
1.62/0.00055555555555556=x
2916=x
x=2916

now we have:
180000% of 1.62=2916
