13.07 is what percent of 36.03 - 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 36.03 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 36.03, so we can write it down as 100%=36.03.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=36.03
2) x%=13.07
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%=36.03/13.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.07 is what percent of 36.03

100%/x%=36.03/13.07
(100/x)*x=(36.03/13.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.7566947207345*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.7566947207345) to get x
100/2.7566947207345=x
36.275326117125=x
x=36.275326117125

now we have:
13.07 is 36.275326117125% of 36.03
