129.44 is what percent of 1341.77 - 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 1341.77 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 1341.77, so we can write it down as 100%=1341.77.
4. We know, that x% equals 129.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=129.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1341.77
2) x%=129.44
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%=1341.77/129.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 129.44 is what percent of 1341.77

100%/x%=1341.77/129.44
(100/x)*x=(1341.77/129.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.365961063041*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.365961063041) to get x
100/10.365961063041=x
9.6469588677642=x
x=9.6469588677642

now we have:
