1.68 is what percent of 562.89 - 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 562.89 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 562.89, so we can write it down as 100%=562.89.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.68 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.68.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=562.89
2) x%=1.68
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%=562.89/1.68
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.68 is what percent of 562.89

100%/x%=562.89/1.68
(100/x)*x=(562.89/1.68)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=335.05357142857*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (335.05357142857) to get x
100/335.05357142857=x
0.29845973458402=x
x=0.29845973458402

now we have:
1.68 is 0.29845973458402% of 562.89
