58.24 is what percent of 675 - 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 675 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 675, so we can write it down as 100%=675.
4. We know, that x% equals 58.24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=58.24.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=675
2) x%=58.24
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%=675/58.24
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 58.24 is what percent of 675

100%/x%=675/58.24
(100/x)*x=(675/58.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=11.589972527473*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (11.589972527473) to get x
100/11.589972527473=x
8.6281481481481=x
x=8.6281481481481

now we have:
58.24 is 8.6281481481481% of 675
