A person who had $1,000,000 gave $100 to charity. How much must a student who has $100 give to charity to give proportionally the same as the millionaire?

Set up a proportion of wealth owned to donation where x is the amount the student gives:
1000000/100 = 100/x

Using our proportion calculator, we get:
x = 0.01
