What is 0.0186 percent of 18.6 - 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 18.6 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 18.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 18.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.0186% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.0186%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 18.6=100%
2) x=0.0186%
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:
18.6/x=100%/0.0186%
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 0.0186% of 18.6

18.6/x=100/0.0186
(18.6/x)*x=(100/0.0186)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
18.6=5376.3440860215*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5376.3440860215) to get x
18.6/5376.3440860215=x
0.0034596=x
x=0.0034596

now we have:
0.0186% of 18.6=0.0034596
