13.04 is what percent of 144.93 - 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 144.93 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 144.93, so we can write it down as 100%=144.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.04 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.04.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=144.93
2) x%=13.04
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%=144.93/13.04
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.04 is what percent of 144.93

100%/x%=144.93/13.04
(100/x)*x=(144.93/13.04)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.114263803681*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.114263803681) to get x
100/11.114263803681=x
8.9974470434003=x
x=8.9974470434003

now we have:
13.04 is 8.9974470434003% of 144.93
