$$x\times 0.002491=\frac{0.01}{100}$$

Expand \frac{0.01}{100} by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 100.

$$x\times 0.002491=\frac{1}{10000}$$

Divide both sides by 0.002491.

$$x=\frac{\frac{1}{10000}}{0.002491}$$

Express \frac{\frac{1}{10000}}{0.002491} as a single fraction.

$$x=\frac{1}{10000\times 0.002491}$$
