What is 2160 percent of 16 - 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 16 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 16 is 100%, so we can write it down as 16=100%.
4. We know, that x is 2160% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=2160%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 16=100%
2) x=2160%
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:
16/x=100%/2160%
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 2160% of 16

16/x=100/2160
(16/x)*x=(100/2160)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
16=0.046296296296296*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.046296296296296) to get x
16/0.046296296296296=x
345.6=x
x=345.6

now we have:
2160% of 16=345.6
