What is 12750 percent of 107500 - 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 107500 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 107500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 107500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12750% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12750%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 107500=100%
2) x=12750%
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:
107500/x=100%/12750%
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 12750% of 107500

107500/x=100/12750
(107500/x)*x=(100/12750)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
107500=0.007843137254902*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.007843137254902) to get x
107500/0.007843137254902=x
13706250=x
x=13706250

now we have:
12750% of 107500=13706250
