135.7 is what percent of 100.8 - 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 100.8 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 100.8, so we can write it down as 100%=100.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 135.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=135.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=100.8
2) x%=135.7
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%=100.8/135.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 135.7 is what percent of 100.8

100%/x%=100.8/135.7
(100/x)*x=(100.8/135.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.74281503316139*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.74281503316139) to get x
100/0.74281503316139=x
134.62301587302=x
x=134.62301587302

now we have:
135.7 is 134.62301587302% of 100.8
