124.08 is what percent of 6230 - 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 6230 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 6230, so we can write it down as 100%=6230.
4. We know, that x% equals 124.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=124.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6230
2) x%=124.08
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%=6230/124.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 124.08 is what percent of 6230

100%/x%=6230/124.08
(100/x)*x=(6230/124.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=50.209542230819*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (50.209542230819) to get x
100/50.209542230819=x
1.9916532905297=x
x=1.9916532905297

now we have:
124.08 is 1.9916532905297% of 6230
