130.33 is what percent of 5054.28 - 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 5054.28 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 5054.28, so we can write it down as 100%=5054.28.
4. We know, that x% equals 130.33 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=130.33.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5054.28
2) x%=130.33
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%=5054.28/130.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 130.33 is what percent of 5054.28

100%/x%=5054.28/130.33
(100/x)*x=(5054.28/130.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=38.7806337758*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (38.7806337758) to get x
100/38.7806337758=x
2.5786066462483=x
x=2.5786066462483

now we have:
