127.44 is what percent of 144.67 - 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 144.67 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 144.67, so we can write it down as 100%=144.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 127.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=127.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=144.67
2) x%=127.44
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%=144.67/127.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 127.44 is what percent of 144.67

100%/x%=144.67/127.44
(100/x)*x=(144.67/127.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1352008788449*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1352008788449) to get x
100/1.1352008788449=x
88.090136171978=x
x=88.090136171978

now we have:
127.44 is 88.090136171978% of 144.67
