What is 23.94 percent of 12.53 - 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 12.53 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 12.53 is 100%, so we can write it down as 12.53=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.94% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.94%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 12.53=100%
2) x=23.94%
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:
12.53/x=100%/23.94%
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 23.94% of 12.53

12.53/x=100/23.94
(12.53/x)*x=(100/23.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
12.53=4.1771094402673*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.1771094402673) to get x
12.53/4.1771094402673=x
2.999682=x
x=2.999682

now we have:
23.94% of 12.53=2.999682
