What is 56.58 percent of 97.24 - 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 97.24 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 97.24 is 100%, so we can write it down as 97.24=100%.
4. We know, that x is 56.58% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=56.58%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 97.24=100%
2) x=56.58%
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:
97.24/x=100%/56.58%
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 56.58% of 97.24

97.24/x=100/56.58
(97.24/x)*x=(100/56.58)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
97.24=1.7674089784376*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7674089784376) to get x
97.24/1.7674089784376=x
55.018392=x
x=55.018392

now we have:
56.58% of 97.24=55.018392
