10.97 is what percent of 547.59 - 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 547.59 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 547.59, so we can write it down as 100%=547.59.
4. We know, that x% equals 10.97 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.97.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=547.59
2) x%=10.97
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%=547.59/10.97
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.97 is what percent of 547.59

100%/x%=547.59/10.97
(100/x)*x=(547.59/10.97)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=49.917046490428*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (49.917046490428) to get x
100/49.917046490428=x
2.0033236545591=x
x=2.0033236545591

now we have:
10.97 is 2.0033236545591% of 547.59
