What is 55.24 percent of 1146 - 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 1146 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 1146 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1146=100%.
4. We know, that x is 55.24% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=55.24%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1146=100%
2) x=55.24%
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:
1146/x=100%/55.24%
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 55.24% of 1146

1146/x=100/55.24
(1146/x)*x=(100/55.24)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1146=1.810282404055*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.810282404055) to get x
1146/1.810282404055=x
633.0504=x
x=633.0504

now we have:
55.24% of 1146=633.0504
