14.14 is what percent of 132 - 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 132 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 132, so we can write it down as 100%=132.
4. We know, that x% equals 14.14 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=14.14.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=132
2) x%=14.14
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%=132/14.14
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 14.14 is what percent of 132

100%/x%=132/14.14
(100/x)*x=(132/14.14)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.3352192362093*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.3352192362093) to get x
100/9.3352192362093=x
10.712121212121=x
x=10.712121212121

now we have:
14.14 is 10.712121212121% of 132
