What is 12950 percent of 12250 - 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 12250 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 12250 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12250=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12950% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12950%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12250=100%
2) x=12950%
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:
12250/x=100%/12950%
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 12950% of 12250

12250/x=100/12950
(12250/x)*x=(100/12950)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12250=0.0077220077220077*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0077220077220077) to get x
12250/0.0077220077220077=x
1586375=x
x=1586375

now we have:
12950% of 12250=1586375
