78195.2 is what percent of 135000 - 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 135000 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 135000, so we can write it down as 100%=135000.
4. We know, that x% equals 78195.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=78195.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=135000
2) x%=78195.2
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%=135000/78195.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 78195.2 is what percent of 135000

100%/x%=135000/78195.2
(100/x)*x=(135000/78195.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7264486822721*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7264486822721) to get x
100/1.7264486822721=x
57.92237037037=x
x=57.92237037037

now we have:
