59.9 is what percent of 564000 - 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 564000 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 564000, so we can write it down as 100%=564000.
4. We know, that x% equals 59.9 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=59.9.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=564000
2) x%=59.9
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%=564000/59.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 59.9 is what percent of 564000

100%/x%=564000/59.9
(100/x)*x=(564000/59.9)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9415.6928213689*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9415.6928213689) to get x
100/9415.6928213689=x
0.010620567375887=x
x=0.010620567375887

now we have:
59.9 is 0.010620567375887% of 564000
