13.99 is what percent of 11.36 - 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 11.36 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 11.36, so we can write it down as 100%=11.36.
4. We know, that x% equals 13.99 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.99.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=11.36
2) x%=13.99
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%=11.36/13.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13.99 is what percent of 11.36

100%/x%=11.36/13.99
(100/x)*x=(11.36/13.99)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.8120085775554*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.8120085775554) to get x
100/0.8120085775554=x
123.1514084507=x
x=123.1514084507

now we have:
13.99 is 123.1514084507% of 11.36
