12.69 is what percent of 2080 - 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 2080 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 2080, so we can write it down as 100%=2080.
4. We know, that x% equals 12.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2080
2) x%=12.69
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%=2080/12.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12.69 is what percent of 2080

100%/x%=2080/12.69
(100/x)*x=(2080/12.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=163.9085894405*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (163.9085894405) to get x
100/163.9085894405=x
0.61009615384615=x
x=0.61009615384615

now we have:
12.69 is 0.61009615384615% of 2080
