94.68 is what percent of 125.08 - 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 125.08 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 125.08, so we can write it down as 100%=125.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 94.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=94.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=125.08
2) x%=94.68
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%=125.08/94.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 94.68 is what percent of 125.08

100%/x%=125.08/94.68
(100/x)*x=(125.08/94.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3210815378116*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3210815378116) to get x
100/1.3210815378116=x
75.695554844899=x
x=75.695554844899

now we have:
94.68 is 75.695554844899% of 125.08
