59.94 is what percent of 0.006 - 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 0.006 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 0.006, so we can write it down as 100%=0.006.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.94 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.94.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=0.006
2) x%=59.94
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%=0.006/59.94
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.94 is what percent of 0.006

100%/x%=0.006/59.94
(100/x)*x=(0.006/59.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0001001001001001*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0001001001001001) to get x
100/0.0001001001001001=x
999000=x
x=999000

now we have:
59.94 is 999000% of 0.006
