What is 55.76 percent of 52 - 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 52 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 52 is 100%, so we can write it down as 52=100%.
4. We know, that x is 55.76% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=55.76%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 52=100%
2) x=55.76%
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:
52/x=100%/55.76%
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 55.76% of 52

52/x=100/55.76
(52/x)*x=(100/55.76)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
52=1.793400286944*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.793400286944) to get x
52/1.793400286944=x
28.9952=x
x=28.9952

now we have:
55.76% of 52=28.9952
