5.47 is what percent of 2060 - 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 2060 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 2060, so we can write it down as 100%=2060.
4. We know, that x% equals 5.47 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5.47.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2060
2) x%=5.47
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%=2060/5.47
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5.47 is what percent of 2060

100%/x%=2060/5.47
(100/x)*x=(2060/5.47)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=376.59963436929*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (376.59963436929) to get x
100/376.59963436929=x
0.26553398058252=x
x=0.26553398058252

now we have:
5.47 is 0.26553398058252% of 2060
