What is 99.75 percent of 560 - 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 560 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 560 is 100%, so we can write it down as 560=100%.
4. We know, that x is 99.75% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=99.75%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 560=100%
2) x=99.75%
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:
560/x=100%/99.75%
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 99.75% of 560

560/x=100/99.75
(560/x)*x=(100/99.75)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
560=1.0025062656642*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0025062656642) to get x
560/1.0025062656642=x
558.6=x
x=558.6

now we have:
99.75% of 560=558.6
