What is 12.503 percent of 60 - 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 60 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 60 is 100%, so we can write it down as 60=100%.
4. We know, that x is 12.503% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=12.503%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 60=100%
2) x=12.503%
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:
60/x=100%/12.503%
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 12.503% of 60

60/x=100/12.503
(60/x)*x=(100/12.503)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
60=7.9980804606894*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.9980804606894) to get x
60/7.9980804606894=x
7.5018=x
x=7.5018

now we have:
12.503% of 60=7.5018
