12.83 is what percent of 93500 - 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 93500 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 93500, so we can write it down as 100%=93500.
4. We know, that x% equals 12.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=93500
2) x%=12.83
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%=93500/12.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12.83 is what percent of 93500

100%/x%=93500/12.83
(100/x)*x=(93500/12.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7287.6071706937*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7287.6071706937) to get x
100/7287.6071706937=x
0.01372192513369=x
x=0.01372192513369

now we have:
12.83 is 0.01372192513369% of 93500
