14.13 is what percent of 113.04 - 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 113.04 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 113.04, so we can write it down as 100%=113.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 14.13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=14.13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=113.04
2) x%=14.13
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%=113.04/14.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 14.13 is what percent of 113.04

100%/x%=113.04/14.13
(100/x)*x=(113.04/14.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8) to get x
100/8=x
12.5=x
x=12.5

now we have:
14.13 is 12.5% of 113.04
