What is 12.52 percent of 560 - 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 560 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 560 is 100%, so we can write it down as 560=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.52% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.52%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 560=100%
2) x=12.52%
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:
560/x=100%/12.52%
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 12.52% of 560

560/x=100/12.52
(560/x)*x=(100/12.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
560=7.9872204472843*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.9872204472843) to get x
560/7.9872204472843=x
70.112=x
x=70.112

now we have:
12.52% of 560=70.112
