What is 1.07 percent of 53431.86 - 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 53431.86 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 53431.86 is 100%, so we can write it down as 53431.86=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.07% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.07%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 53431.86=100%
2) x=1.07%
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:
53431.86/x=100%/1.07%
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 1.07% of 53431.86

53431.86/x=100/1.07
