What is 59.94 percent of 23.967 - 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 23.967 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 23.967 is 100%, so we can write it down as 23.967=100%.
4. We know, that x is 59.94% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=59.94%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 23.967=100%
2) x=59.94%
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:
23.967/x=100%/59.94%
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 59.94% of 23.967

23.967/x=100/59.94
(23.967/x)*x=(100/59.94)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
23.967=1.6683350016683*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.6683350016683) to get x
23.967/1.6683350016683=x
14.3658198=x
x=14.3658198

now we have:
59.94% of 23.967=14.3658198
