120.7 is what percent of 350.4 - 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 350.4 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 350.4, so we can write it down as 100%=350.4.
4. We know, that x% equals 120.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=120.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=350.4
2) x%=120.7
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%=350.4/120.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 120.7 is what percent of 350.4

100%/x%=350.4/120.7
(100/x)*x=(350.4/120.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.9030654515327*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.9030654515327) to get x
100/2.9030654515327=x
34.446347031963=x
x=34.446347031963

now we have:
120.7 is 34.446347031963% of 350.4
