128.4 is what percent of 141.23 - 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 141.23 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 141.23, so we can write it down as 100%=141.23.
4. We know, that x% equals 128.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=128.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=141.23
2) x%=128.4
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%=141.23/128.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 128.4 is what percent of 141.23

100%/x%=141.23/128.4
(100/x)*x=(141.23/128.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0999221183801*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0999221183801) to get x
100/1.0999221183801=x
90.915527862352=x
x=90.915527862352

now we have:
128.4 is 90.915527862352% of 141.23
