What is 0.11625 percent of 31 - 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 31 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 31 is 100%, so we can write it down as 31=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.11625% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.11625%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 31=100%
2) x=0.11625%
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:
31/x=100%/0.11625%
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 0.11625% of 31

31/x=100/0.11625
(31/x)*x=(100/0.11625)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
31=860.21505376344*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (860.21505376344) to get x
31/860.21505376344=x
0.0360375=x
x=0.0360375

now we have:
0.11625% of 31=0.0360375
