1.33 is what percent of 16.37 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 16.37 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 16.37, so we can write it down as 100%=16.37.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=16.37
2) x%=1.33
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=16.37/1.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.33 is what percent of 16.37

100%/x%=16.37/1.33
(100/x)*x=(16.37/1.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=12.308270676692*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (12.308270676692) to get x
100/12.308270676692=x
8.1246182040318=x
x=8.1246182040318

now we have:
1.33 is 8.1246182040318% of 16.37
