134.7 is what percent of 182 - 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 182 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 182, so we can write it down as 100%=182.
4. We know, that x% equals 134.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=134.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=182
2) x%=134.7
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%=182/134.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 134.7 is what percent of 182

100%/x%=182/134.7
(100/x)*x=(182/134.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.351150705271*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.351150705271) to get x
100/1.351150705271=x
74.010989010989=x
x=74.010989010989

now we have:
134.7 is 74.010989010989% of 182
