What is 59.7 percent of 6.01 - 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 6.01 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 6.01 is 100%, so we can write it down as 6.01=100%.
4. We know, that x is 59.7% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=59.7%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 6.01=100%
2) x=59.7%
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:
6.01/x=100%/59.7%
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 59.7% of 6.01

6.01/x=100/59.7
(6.01/x)*x=(100/59.7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
6.01=1.6750418760469*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.6750418760469) to get x
6.01/1.6750418760469=x
3.58797=x
x=3.58797

now we have:
59.7% of 6.01=3.58797
