Answer:
27.648
Step-by-step explanation: 1. We assume, that the number 57.6 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 57.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 57.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 48% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=48%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 57.6=100%
2) x=48%
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:
57.6/x=100%/48%
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 48% of 57.6
57.6/x=100/48
(57.6/x)*x=(100/48)*x - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
57.6=2.0833333333333*x - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0833333333333) to get x
57.6/2.0833333333333=x
27.648=x
x=27.648
now we have:
48% of 57.6=27.648
