12.93 is what percent of 649.96 - 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 649.96 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 649.96, so we can write it down as 100%=649.96.
4. We know, that x% equals 12.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=12.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=649.96
2) x%=12.93
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%=649.96/12.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12.93 is what percent of 649.96

100%/x%=649.96/12.93
(100/x)*x=(649.96/12.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=50.267594740913*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (50.267594740913) to get x
100/50.267594740913=x
1.9893531909656=x
x=1.9893531909656

now we have:
12.93 is 1.9893531909656% of 649.96
