60.01 is what percent of 1440.41 - 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 1440.41 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 1440.41, so we can write it down as 100%=1440.41.
4. We know, that x% equals 60.01 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=60.01.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1440.41
2) x%=60.01
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%=1440.41/60.01
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 60.01 is what percent of 1440.41

100%/x%=1440.41/60.01
(100/x)*x=(1440.41/60.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.00283286119*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.00283286119) to get x
100/24.00283286119=x
4.166174908533=x
x=4.166174908533

now we have:
60.01 is 4.166174908533% of 1440.41
