What is 12 percent of 1148?
Answer: 137.76
Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.
Steps:
Lets assume 12 percent of 1148 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 12% of 1148
12% can also be written as 12/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 12/100 × 1148
Or, X = 0.12 × 1148
So, X = 137.76
So, 12% of 1148 is 137.76

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.
Answer verification
Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100
LHS (Percentage) = 12
RHS = 137.76/1148 × 100
