What is 3.59 percent of 324.6 - 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 324.6 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 324.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 324.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.59% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.59%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 324.6=100%
2) x=3.59%
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:
324.6/x=100%/3.59%
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 3.59% of 324.6

324.6/x=100/3.59
(324.6/x)*x=(100/3.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
324.6=27.855153203343*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (27.855153203343) to get x
324.6/27.855153203343=x
11.65314=x
x=11.65314

now we have:
3.59% of 324.6=11.65314
