What is 12.46105 percent of 160.5 - 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 160.5 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 160.5 is 100%, so we can write it down as 160.5=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.46105% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.46105%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 160.5=100%
2) x=12.46105%
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:
160.5/x=100%/12.46105%
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 12.46105% of 160.5

160.5/x=100/12.46105
(160.5/x)*x=(100/12.46105)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
160.5=8.0250059184419*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.0250059184419) to get x
160.5/8.0250059184419=x
19.99998525=x
x=19.99998525

now we have:
12.46105% of 160.5=19.99998525
