What is 6.33 percent of 5940 - 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 5940 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 5940 is 100%, so we can write it down as 5940=100%.
4. We know, that x is 6.33% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=6.33%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 5940=100%
2) x=6.33%
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:
5940/x=100%/6.33%
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 6.33% of 5940

5940/x=100/6.33
(5940/x)*x=(100/6.33)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
5940=15.797788309637*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (15.797788309637) to get x
5940/15.797788309637=x
376.002=x
x=376.002

now we have:
6.33% of 5940=376.002
