What is 12.27 percent of 100 - 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 100 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 is 100%, so we can write it down as 100=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.27% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.27%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100=100%
2) x=12.27%
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=100%/12.27%
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 12.27% of 100

100/x=100/12.27
(100/x)*x=(100/12.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.1499592502038*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.1499592502038) to get x
100/8.1499592502038=x
12.27=x
x=12.27

now we have:
12.27% of 100=12.27
