What is 10% out of a 100?

10. percent *100 =

(10.:100)*100 =

(10.*100):100 =

1000:100 = 10

Now we have: 10. percent of 100 = 10

Question: What is 10. percent of 100?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: Our output value is 100.

Step 2: We represent the unknown value with {x}.

Step 3: From step 1 above,{100}={100\%}.

Step 4: Similarly, {x}={10.\%}.

Step 5: This results in a pair of simple equations:

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

{x}={10.\%}(2).

Step 6: By dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and noting that both the RHS (right hand side) of both
equations have the same unit (%); we have

\frac{100}{x}=\frac{100\%}{10.\%}

Step 7: Again, the reciprocal of both sides gives

\frac{x}{100}=\frac{10.}{100}

\Rightarrow{x} = {10}

Therefore, {10.\%} of {100} is {10}

100:.10*100 =

( 100*100):.10 =

10000:.10 = 100000

Now we have: 100 is what percent of .10 = 100000

Question: 100 is what percent of .10?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that .10 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\%}={.10}.

Step 4: In the same vein, {x\%}={ 100}.

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

{100\%}={.10}(1).

{x\%}={ 100}(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{.10}{ 100}

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

\frac{x\%}{100\%}=\frac{ 100}{.10}

\Rightarrow{x} = {100000\%}

Therefore, { 100} is {100000\%} of {.10}.

10% of 100 is 10

Working out 10% of 100

  1. Write 10% as 10/100
  2. Since, finding the fraction of a number is same as multiplying the fraction with the number, we have
    10/100 of 100 = 10/100 × 100
  3. Therefore, the answer is 10

    If you are using a calculator, simply enter 10÷100×100 which will give you 10 as the answer.
