What is 0.4257 percent of 60824 - 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 60824 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 60824 is 100%, so we can write it down as 60824=100%.
4. We know, that x is 0.4257% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=0.4257%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 60824=100%
2) x=0.4257%
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:
60824/x=100%/0.4257%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 0.4257% of 60824

60824/x=100/0.4257
(60824/x)*x=(100/0.4257)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
60824=234.9072116514*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (234.9072116514) to get x
60824/234.9072116514=x
258.927768=x
x=258.927768

now we have:
