11.58 is what percent of 1760 - 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 1760 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 1760, so we can write it down as 100%=1760.
4. We know, that x% equals 11.58 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=11.58.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1760
2) x%=11.58
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%=1760/11.58
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 11.58 is what percent of 1760

100%/x%=1760/11.58
(100/x)*x=(1760/11.58)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=151.98618307427*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (151.98618307427) to get x
100/151.98618307427=x
0.65795454545455=x
x=0.65795454545455

now we have:
11.58 is 0.65795454545455% of 1760
