Answer:
The answer is x= 0.006
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume, that the number 0.03 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 0.03 is 100%, so we can write it down as 0.03=100%.
4. We know, that x is 20% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=20%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 0.03=100%
2) x=20%
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:
0.03/x=100%/20%
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 20% of 0.03
0.03/x=100/20
(0.03/x)*x=(100/20)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
0.03=5*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (5) to get x
0.03/5=x
0.006=x
x=0.006
