59.7 is what percent of 6.01 - 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 6.01 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 6.01, so we can write it down as 100%=6.01.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6.01
2) x%=59.7
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%=6.01/59.7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.7 is what percent of 6.01

100%/x%=6.01/59.7
(100/x)*x=(6.01/59.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.10067001675042*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.10067001675042) to get x
100/0.10067001675042=x
993.34442595674=x
x=993.34442595674

now we have:
59.7 is 993.34442595674% of 6.01
