6.28 is what percent of 53 - 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 53 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 53, so we can write it down as 100%=53.
4. We know, that x% equals 6.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=53
2) x%=6.28
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%=53/6.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6.28 is what percent of 53

100%/x%=53/6.28
(100/x)*x=(53/6.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.4394904458599*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.4394904458599) to get x
100/8.4394904458599=x
11.849056603774=x
x=11.849056603774

now we have:
6.28 is 11.849056603774% of 53
