What is 6.301 percent of 59.329 - 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 59.329 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 59.329 is 100%, so we can write it down as 59.329=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.301% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.301%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 59.329=100%
2) x=6.301%
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:
59.329/x=100%/6.301%
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 6.301% of 59.329

59.329/x=100/6.301
(59.329/x)*x=(100/6.301)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
59.329=15.870496746548*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.870496746548) to get x
59.329/15.870496746548=x
3.73832029=x
x=3.73832029

now we have:
