0.54 is what percent of 29.67 - 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 29.67 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 29.67, so we can write it down as 100%=29.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 0.54 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=0.54.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=29.67
2) x%=0.54
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%=29.67/0.54
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 0.54 is what percent of 29.67

100%/x%=29.67/0.54
(100/x)*x=(29.67/0.54)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=54.944444444444*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (54.944444444444) to get x
100/54.944444444444=x
1.8200202224469=x
x=1.8200202224469

now we have:
0.54 is 1.8200202224469% of 29.67
