What is 12.63 percent of 12.26 - 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 12.26 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 12.26 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12.26=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.63% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.63%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12.26=100%
2) x=12.63%
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:
12.26/x=100%/12.63%
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 12.63% of 12.26

12.26/x=100/12.63
(12.26/x)*x=(100/12.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12.26=7.9176563737134*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.9176563737134) to get x
12.26/7.9176563737134=x
1.548438=x
x=1.548438

now we have:
12.63% of 12.26=1.548438
