What is 37624 percent of 5.99 - 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 5.99 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 5.99 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5.99=100%.
4. We know, that x is 37624% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=37624%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5.99=100%
2) x=37624%
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:
5.99/x=100%/37624%
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 37624% of 5.99

5.99/x=100/37624
(5.99/x)*x=(100/37624)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5.99=0.0026578779502445*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0026578779502445) to get x
5.99/0.0026578779502445=x
2253.6776=x
x=2253.6776

now we have:
37624% of 5.99=2253.6776
