136.68 is what percent of 20400 - 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 20400 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 20400, so we can write it down as 100%=20400.
4. We know, that x% equals 136.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=136.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20400
2) x%=136.68
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%=20400/136.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 136.68 is what percent of 20400

100%/x%=20400/136.68
(100/x)*x=(20400/136.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=149.25373134328*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (149.25373134328) to get x
100/149.25373134328=x
0.67=x
x=0.67

now we have:
136.68 is 0.67% of 20400
