59 is what percent of 0.67 - 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 0.67 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 0.67, so we can write it down as 100%=0.67.
4. We know, that x% equals 59 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.67
2) x%=59
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%=0.67/59
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59 is what percent of 0.67

100%/x%=0.67/59
(100/x)*x=(0.67/59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.01135593220339*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.01135593220339) to get x
100/0.01135593220339=x
8805.9701492537=x
x=8805.9701492537

now we have:
59 is 8805.9701492537% of 0.67
