What is 5.843 percent of 1050 - 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 1050 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 1050 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1050=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.843% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.843%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1050=100%
2) x=5.843%
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:
1050/x=100%/5.843%
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 5.843% of 1050

1050/x=100/5.843
(1050/x)*x=(100/5.843)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1050=17.114495978093*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.114495978093) to get x
1050/17.114495978093=x
61.3515=x
x=61.3515

now we have:
5.843% of 1050=61.3515
