What is 23.02 percent of 60000 - 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 60000 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 60000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 60000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 23.02% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=23.02%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 60000=100%
2) x=23.02%
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:
60000/x=100%/23.02%
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 23.02% of 60000

60000/x=100/23.02
(60000/x)*x=(100/23.02)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
60000=4.3440486533449*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.3440486533449) to get x
60000/4.3440486533449=x
13812=x
x=13812

now we have:
23.02% of 60000=13812
