572.56 is what percent of 100 - 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 100 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 100, so we can write it down as 100%=100.
4. We know, that x% equals 572.56 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=572.56.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=100
2) x%=572.56
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%=100/572.56
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 572.56 is what percent of 100

100%/x%=100/572.56
(100/x)*x=(100/572.56)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.17465418471427*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.17465418471427) to get x
100/0.17465418471427=x
572.56=x
x=572.56

now we have:
572.56 is 572.56% of 100
