57.48 is what percent of 1533 - 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 1533 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 1533, so we can write it down as 100%=1533.
4. We know, that x% equals 57.48 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=57.48.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1533
2) x%=57.48
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%=1533/57.48
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 57.48 is what percent of 1533

100%/x%=1533/57.48
(100/x)*x=(1533/57.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.670146137787*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.670146137787) to get x
100/26.670146137787=x
3.7495107632094=x
x=3.7495107632094

now we have:
57.48 is 3.7495107632094% of 1533
