What is 7.62 percent of 133500 - 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 133500 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 133500 is 100%, so we can write it down as 133500=100%.
4. We know, that x is 7.62% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=7.62%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 133500=100%
2) x=7.62%
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:
133500/x=100%/7.62%
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 7.62% of 133500

133500/x=100/7.62
(133500/x)*x=(100/7.62)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
133500=13.123359580052*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.123359580052) to get x
133500/13.123359580052=x
10172.7=x
x=10172.7

now we have:
7.62% of 133500=10172.7
