What is 5423 percent of 60 - 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 60 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 60 is 100%, so we can write it down as 60=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5423% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5423%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 60=100%
2) x=5423%
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:
60/x=100%/5423%
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 5423% of 60

60/x=100/5423
(60/x)*x=(100/5423)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
60=0.018439977872027*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.018439977872027) to get x
60/0.018439977872027=x
3253.8=x
x=3253.8

now we have:
5423% of 60=3253.8
