67.19 is what percent of 131.99 - 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 131.99 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 100% equals 131.99, so we can write it down as 100%=131.99.
4. We know, that x% equals 67.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=67.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=131.99
2) x%=67.19
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:
100%/x%=131.99/67.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 67.19 is what percent of 131.99

100%/x%=131.99/67.19
(100/x)*x=(131.99/67.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.9644292305403*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9644292305403) to get x
100/1.9644292305403=x
50.905371619062=x
x=50.905371619062

now we have:
67.19 is 50.905371619062% of 131.99
