What is 58.375 percent of 1600 - 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 1600 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 1600 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1600=100%.
4. We know, that x is 58.375% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=58.375%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1600=100%
2) x=58.375%
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:
1600/x=100%/58.375%
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 58.375% of 1600

1600/x=100/58.375
(1600/x)*x=(100/58.375)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1600=1.7130620985011*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.7130620985011) to get x
1600/1.7130620985011=x
934=x
x=934

now we have:
58.375% of 1600=934
