What is 0.007487 percent of 12.5 - 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 12.5 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 12.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.007487% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.007487%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12.5=100%
2) x=0.007487%
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:
12.5/x=100%/0.007487%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.007487% of 12.5

12.5/x=100/0.007487
(12.5/x)*x=(100/0.007487)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12.5=13356.48457326*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13356.48457326) to get x
12.5/13356.48457326=x
0.000935875=x
x=0.000935875

now we have:
0.007487% of 12.5=0.000935875
