What is 5.94 percent of 668.15 - 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 668.15 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 668.15 is 100%, so we can write it down as 668.15=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.94% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.94%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 668.15=100%
2) x=5.94%
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:
668.15/x=100%/5.94%
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 5.94% of 668.15

668.15/x=100/5.94
(668.15/x)*x=(100/5.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
668.15=16.835016835017*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.835016835017) to get x
668.15/16.835016835017=x
39.68811=x
x=39.68811

now we have:
5.94% of 668.15=39.68811
