What is 148.88 percent of 12 - 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 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 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12=100%.
4. We know, that x is 148.88% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=148.88%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12=100%
2) x=148.88%
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/x=100%/148.88%
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 148.88% of 12

12/x=100/148.88
(12/x)*x=(100/148.88)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12=0.67168189145621*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.67168189145621) to get x
12/0.67168189145621=x
17.8656=x
x=17.8656

now we have:
148.88% of 12=17.8656
