109.6 is what 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 100% equals 560, so we can write it down as 100%=560.
4. We know, that x% equals 109.6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=109.6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=560
2) x%=109.6
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:
100%/x%=560/109.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 109.6 is what percent of 560

100%/x%=560/109.6
(100/x)*x=(560/109.6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.1094890510949*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.1094890510949) to get x
100/5.1094890510949=x
19.571428571429=x
x=19.571428571429

now we have:
109.6 is 19.571428571429% of 560
