63.52 is what percent of 1584 - 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 1584 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 1584, so we can write it down as 100%=1584.
4. We know, that x% equals 63.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=63.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1584
2) x%=63.52
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%=1584/63.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 63.52 is what percent of 1584

100%/x%=1584/63.52
(100/x)*x=(1584/63.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.937027707809*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.937027707809) to get x
100/24.937027707809=x
4.010101010101=x
x=4.010101010101

now we have:
63.52 is 4.010101010101% of 1584
