13 is what percent of 58892 - 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 58892 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 58892, so we can write it down as 100%=58892.
4. We know, that x% equals 13 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=13.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=58892
2) x%=13
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%=58892/13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13 is what percent of 58892

100%/x%=58892/13
(100/x)*x=(58892/13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4530.1538461538*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4530.1538461538) to get x
100/4530.1538461538=x
0.022074305508388=x
x=0.022074305508388

now we have:
13 is 0.022074305508388% of 58892
