32 is what percent of 58233 - 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 58233 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 58233, so we can write it down as 100%=58233.
4. We know, that x% equals 32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=58233
2) x%=32
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%=58233/32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 32 is what percent of 58233

100%/x%=58233/32
(100/x)*x=(58233/32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1819.78125*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1819.78125) to get x
100/1819.78125=x
0.054951659711847=x
x=0.054951659711847

now we have:
32 is 0.054951659711847% of 58233
