What is 59.35 percent of 96 - 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 96 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 96 is 100%, so we can write it down as 96=100%.
4. We know, that x is 59.35% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=59.35%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 96=100%
2) x=59.35%
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:
96/x=100%/59.35%
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 59.35% of 96

96/x=100/59.35
(96/x)*x=(100/59.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
96=1.6849199663016*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.6849199663016) to get x
96/1.6849199663016=x
56.976=x
x=56.976

now we have:
59.35% of 96=56.976
