98.47 is what percent of 1312 - 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 1312 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 1312, so we can write it down as 100%=1312.
4. We know, that x% equals 98.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=98.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1312
2) x%=98.47
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%=1312/98.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 98.47 is what percent of 1312

100%/x%=1312/98.47
(100/x)*x=(1312/98.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.323854981213*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.323854981213) to get x
100/13.323854981213=x
7.5053353658537=x
x=7.5053353658537

now we have:
98.47 is 7.5053353658537% of 1312
