58.27 is what percent of 1560.02 - 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 1560.02 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 1560.02, so we can write it down as 100%=1560.02.
4. We know, that x% equals 58.27 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=58.27.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1560.02
2) x%=58.27
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%=1560.02/58.27
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 58.27 is what percent of 1560.02

100%/x%=1560.02/58.27
(100/x)*x=(1560.02/58.27)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=26.772267032778*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (26.772267032778) to get x
100/26.772267032778=x
3.7352085229677=x
x=3.7352085229677

now we have:
58.27 is 3.7352085229677% of 1560.02
