What is 17.13 percent of 5833.33 - 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 5833.33 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 5833.33 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5833.33=100%.
4. We know, that x is 17.13% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=17.13%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5833.33=100%
2) x=17.13%
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:
5833.33/x=100%/17.13%
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 17.13% of 5833.33

5833.33/x=100/17.13
(5833.33/x)*x=(100/17.13)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5833.33=5.8377116170461*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.8377116170461) to get x
5833.33/5.8377116170461=x
999.249429=x
x=999.249429

now we have:
