What is 13 percent of 60718.52 - 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 60718.52 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 60718.52 is 100%, so we can write it down as 60718.52=100%.
4. We know, that x is 13% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=13%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 60718.52=100%
2) x=13%
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:
60718.52/x=100%/13%
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 13% of 60718.52

60718.52/x=100/13
(60718.52/x)*x=(100/13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
60718.52=7.6923076923077*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.6923076923077) to get x
60718.52/7.6923076923077=x
7893.4076=x
x=7893.4076

now we have:
13% of 60718.52=7893.4076
