13 is what percent of 10202 - 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 10202 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 10202, so we can write it down as 100%=10202.
4. We know, that x% equals 13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10202
2) x%=13
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%=10202/13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13 is what percent of 10202

100%/x%=10202/13
(100/x)*x=(10202/13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=784.76923076923*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (784.76923076923) to get x
100/784.76923076923=x
0.12742599490296=x
x=0.12742599490296

now we have:
13 is 0.12742599490296% of 10202
