What is 5.9837 percent of 410.55 - 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 410.55 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 410.55 is 100%, so we can write it down as 410.55=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.9837% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.9837%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 410.55=100%
2) x=5.9837%
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:
410.55/x=100%/5.9837%
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 5.9837% of 410.55

410.55/x=100/5.9837
(410.55/x)*x=(100/5.9837)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
410.55=16.712067784147*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (16.712067784147) to get x
410.55/16.712067784147=x
24.56608035=x
x=24.56608035

now we have:
