124.3 is what percent of 1676.88 - 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 1676.88 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 1676.88, so we can write it down as 100%=1676.88.
4. We know, that x% equals 124.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=124.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1676.88
2) x%=124.3
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%=1676.88/124.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 124.3 is what percent of 1676.88

100%/x%=1676.88/124.3
(100/x)*x=(1676.88/124.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
