35.75 is what percent of 60.67 - 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 60.67 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 60.67, so we can write it down as 100%=60.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 35.75 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=35.75.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=60.67
2) x%=35.75
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%=60.67/35.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 35.75 is what percent of 60.67

100%/x%=60.67/35.75
(100/x)*x=(60.67/35.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.6970629370629*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.6970629370629) to get x
100/1.6970629370629=x
58.92533377287=x
x=58.92533377287

now we have:
35.75 is 58.92533377287% of 60.67
