Question: .15 is what percent of 42?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 42 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with {x}.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that {100\%}={42}.

Step 4: In the same vein, {x\%}={.15}.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

{100\%}={42}(1).

{x\%}={.15}(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{42}{.15}

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{.15}{42}

\Rightarrow{x} = {0.36\%}

Therefore, {.15} is {0.36\%} of {42}.

Solution for 42 is what percent of .15:

42:.15*100 =

(42*100):.15 =

4200:.15 = 28000

Now we have: 42 is what percent of .15 = 28000

Question: 42 is what percent of .15?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that .15 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with {x}.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that {100\%}={.15}.

Step 4: In the same vein, {x\%}={42}.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

{100\%}={.15}(1).

{x\%}={42}(2).

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS
(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

\frac{100\%}{x\%}=\frac{.15}{42}

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{42}{.15}

\Rightarrow{x} = {28000\%}

Therefore, {42} is {28000\%} of {.15}.
