128.54 is what percent of 277.04 - 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 277.04 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 277.04, so we can write it down as 100%=277.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 128.54 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=128.54.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=277.04
2) x%=128.54
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%=277.04/128.54
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 128.54 is what percent of 277.04

100%/x%=277.04/128.54
(100/x)*x=(277.04/128.54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.155282402365*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.155282402365) to get x
100/2.155282402365=x
46.397632110887=x
x=46.397632110887

now we have:
128.54 is 46.397632110887% of 277.04
