If 18 % is 3 how much is 100 % and how did you came up with it ? ?

3/18=x/100

proportions

18x=300
x=16.666666666666666666666
or 16 (2/3)

The simple Version is:

.18X = 3; Therefore X = 3/.18 = 16.67

Let the value of which 3 is 18% be- x
That means - 18% of x = 3
or 18/100*x=3
therefore, 18x = 100*3 and 18x = 300
thus, x = 300/18 = 50/3 = 16(2/3) or 16.666666666.....

Well 18% is equal to 3.
To write 18% in decimals is 18/100=0.18
We now assume that 100% is equal to x
then 0.18 times x be equal to 3 so:

0.18x=3
Then we just divide both sides by 0.18
x=3/0.18
x=16+(2/3)
(2/3) is a number with infinity decimal places. (0.6666...)

18% 3
100% X=[(100%) x 3] / (18%)=
= 100 x 3/18=16.667
The whole thing is 16.667 NOT 16.667%

3/(18%)=
50/3

18% of something can be rewritten as:

18x/100 = 3

So you want to know what x is, because 100% of x is x

Multiply both sides by 100/18

x = 100 / 6 = 50 / 3

18%x = 3
18x/100 = 3
18x = 100(3)
18x = 300
x = 300/18
x = 50/3 (16 2/3)
