69.24 is what percent of 563.04 - 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 563.04 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 563.04, so we can write it down as 100%=563.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 69.24 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=69.24.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=563.04
2) x%=69.24
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%=563.04/69.24
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 69.24 is what percent of 563.04

100%/x%=563.04/69.24
(100/x)*x=(563.04/69.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.1317157712305*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.1317157712305) to get x
100/8.1317157712305=x
12.297527706735=x
x=12.297527706735

now we have:
69.24 is 12.297527706735% of 563.04
