What is 54.6 percent of 1.267 - 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 1.267 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 1.267 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1.267=100%.
4. We know, that x is 54.6% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=54.6%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1.267=100%
2) x=54.6%
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:
1.267/x=100%/54.6%
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 54.6% of 1.267

1.267/x=100/54.6
(1.267/x)*x=(100/54.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1.267=1.8315018315018*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.8315018315018) to get x
1.267/1.8315018315018=x
0.691782=x
x=0.691782

now we have:
54.6% of 1.267=0.691782
