3408.94 is what percent of 5950 - 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 5950 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 5950, so we can write it down as 100%=5950.
4. We know, that x% equals 3408.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3408.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5950
2) x%=3408.94
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%=5950/3408.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3408.94 is what percent of 5950

100%/x%=5950/3408.94
(100/x)*x=(5950/3408.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.7454105968424*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7454105968424) to get x
100/1.7454105968424=x
57.293109243697=x
x=57.293109243697

now we have:
