59.93 is what percent of 1728 - 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 1728 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 1728, so we can write it down as 100%=1728.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.93 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.93.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1728
2) x%=59.93
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%=1728/59.93
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.93 is what percent of 1728

100%/x%=1728/59.93
(100/x)*x=(1728/59.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=28.833639245787*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.833639245787) to get x
100/28.833639245787=x
3.4681712962963=x
x=3.4681712962963

now we have:
59.93 is 3.4681712962963% of 1728
