12.07 is what percent of 67.06 - 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 67.06 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 67.06, so we can write it down as 100%=67.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 12.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=67.06
2) x%=12.07
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%=67.06/12.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12.07 is what percent of 67.06

100%/x%=67.06/12.07
(100/x)*x=(67.06/12.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.5559237779619*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.5559237779619) to get x
100/5.5559237779619=x
17.998807038473=x
x=17.998807038473

now we have:
12.07 is 17.998807038473% of 67.06
