131.64 is what percent of 1530.03 - 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 1530.03 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 1530.03, so we can write it down as 100%=1530.03.
4. We know, that x% equals 131.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=131.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1530.03
2) x%=131.64
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%=1530.03/131.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 131.64 is what percent of 1530.03

100%/x%=1530.03/131.64
(100/x)*x=(1530.03/131.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.622835004558*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.622835004558) to get x
100/11.622835004558=x
8.6037528675908=x
x=8.6037528675908

now we have:
131.64 is 8.6037528675908% of 1530.03
