662.34 is what percent of 5958 - 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 5958 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 5958, so we can write it down as 100%=5958.
4. We know, that x% equals 662.34 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=662.34.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5958
2) x%=662.34
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%=5958/662.34
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 662.34 is what percent of 5958

100%/x%=5958/662.34
(100/x)*x=(5958/662.34)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.9953800163058*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.9953800163058) to get x
100/8.9953800163058=x
11.116817724068=x
x=11.116817724068

now we have:
