12.07 is what percent of 8.93 - 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 8.93 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 8.93, so we can write it down as 100%=8.93.
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%=8.93
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%=8.93/12.07
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 8.93

100%/x%=8.93/12.07
(100/x)*x=(8.93/12.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.73985086992543*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.73985086992543) to get x
100/0.73985086992543=x
135.16237402016=x
x=135.16237402016

now we have:
12.07 is 135.16237402016% of 8.93
