What is 0.758 percent of 12.543 - 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 12.543 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 12.543 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12.543=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.758% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.758%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12.543=100%
2) x=0.758%
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:
12.543/x=100%/0.758%
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 0.758% of 12.543

12.543/x=100/0.758
(12.543/x)*x=(100/0.758)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12.543=131.92612137203*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (131.92612137203) to get x
12.543/131.92612137203=x
0.09507594=x
x=0.09507594

now we have:
0.758% of 12.543=0.09507594
