34.73 is what percent of 560.05 - 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 560.05 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 560.05, so we can write it down as 100%=560.05.
4. We know, that x% equals 34.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=34.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=560.05
2) x%=34.73
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%=560.05/34.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 34.73 is what percent of 560.05

100%/x%=560.05/34.73
(100/x)*x=(560.05/34.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=16.12582781457*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.12582781457) to get x
100/16.12582781457=x
6.2012320328542=x
x=6.2012320328542

now we have:
34.73 is 6.2012320328542% of 560.05
