15.67 is what percent of 144.95 - 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 144.95 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 144.95, so we can write it down as 100%=144.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 15.67 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15.67.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=144.95
2) x%=15.67
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%=144.95/15.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 15.67 is what percent of 144.95

100%/x%=144.95/15.67
(100/x)*x=(144.95/15.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.2501595405233*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.2501595405233) to get x
100/9.2501595405233=x
10.810624353225=x
x=10.810624353225

now we have:
15.67 is 10.810624353225% of 144.95
