What is 5.875 percent of 1567 - 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 1567 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 1567 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1567=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.875% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.875%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1567=100%
2) x=5.875%
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:
1567/x=100%/5.875%
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 5.875% of 1567

1567/x=100/5.875
(1567/x)*x=(100/5.875)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1567=17.021276595745*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (17.021276595745) to get x
1567/17.021276595745=x
92.06125=x
x=92.06125

now we have:
5.875% of 1567=92.06125
