What is 150.72 percent of 50.24 - 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 50.24 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 50.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 50.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 150.72% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=150.72%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 50.24=100%
2) x=150.72%
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:
50.24/x=100%/150.72%
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 150.72% of 50.24

50.24/x=100/150.72
(50.24/x)*x=(100/150.72)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
50.24=0.66348195329087*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.66348195329087) to get x
50.24/0.66348195329087=x
75.721728=x
x=75.721728

now we have:
150.72% of 50.24=75.721728
