Answer to Problem 3SAP

  $1000$ Percent.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  $0.1\%$ of $m$ is equal to $10\%$ of $n$ .

Calculation:

According to the given information

  $\begin{array}{l}\frac{0.1\times m}{100}=\frac{10\times n}{100}\\ \Rightarrow 0.1m=10n\\ \Rightarrow m=\frac{10n}{0.1}\\ \Rightarrow m=10\times 10n\\ \Rightarrow m=\frac{10\times 10n\times 100}{100}\\ \Rightarrow m=\frac{1000\times 10n}{100}\end{array}$

This means $m$ is $1000$ percent of $10n$ .
