67.12 is what percent of 508.45 - 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 508.45 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 508.45, so we can write it down as 100%=508.45.
4. We know, that x% equals 67.12 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=67.12.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=508.45
2) x%=67.12
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%=508.45/67.12
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 67.12 is what percent of 508.45

100%/x%=508.45/67.12
(100/x)*x=(508.45/67.12)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.5752383790226*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.5752383790226) to get x
100/7.5752383790226=x
13.200904710394=x
x=13.200904710394

now we have:
67.12 is 13.200904710394% of 508.45
