What is 74.57 percent of 121.37 - 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 121.37 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 121.37 is 100%, so we can write it down as 121.37=100%.
4. We know, that x is 74.57% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=74.57%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 121.37=100%
2) x=74.57%
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:
121.37/x=100%/74.57%
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 74.57% of 121.37

121.37/x=100/74.57
(121.37/x)*x=(100/74.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
121.37=1.3410218586563*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3410218586563) to get x
121.37/1.3410218586563=x
90.505609=x
x=90.505609

now we have:
74.57% of 121.37=90.505609
