59.77 is what percent of 3210.06 - 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 3210.06 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 3210.06, so we can write it down as 100%=3210.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.77 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.77.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3210.06
2) x%=59.77
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%=3210.06/59.77
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.77 is what percent of 3210.06

100%/x%=3210.06/59.77
(100/x)*x=(3210.06/59.77)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=53.706876359378*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (53.706876359378) to get x
100/53.706876359378=x
1.8619589664991=x
x=1.8619589664991

now we have:
