60 is what percent of 44.94 - 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 44.94 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 44.94, so we can write it down as 100%=44.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 60 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44.94
2) x%=60
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%=44.94/60
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60 is what percent of 44.94

100%/x%=44.94/60
(100/x)*x=(44.94/60)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.749*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.749) to get x
100/0.749=x
133.51134846462=x
x=133.51134846462

now we have:
60 is 133.51134846462% of 44.94
