12.04 is what percent of 12.67 - 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 12.67 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 12.67, so we can write it down as 100%=12.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 12.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=12.67
2) x%=12.04
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%=12.67/12.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12.04 is what percent of 12.67

100%/x%=12.67/12.04
(100/x)*x=(12.67/12.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0523255813953*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0523255813953) to get x
100/1.0523255813953=x
95.027624309392=x
x=95.027624309392

now we have:
12.04 is 95.027624309392% of 12.67
