Question

58% of what is 63.4​

Answer 1

it is 36.772

if you want the work I can write it to!

Answer 2

Answer:

x=36.772

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 63.4 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 63.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 63.4=100%.

4. We know, that x is 58% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=58%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 63.4=100%

2) x=58%

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:

63.4/x=100%/58%

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 58% of 63.4

63.4/x=100/58

(63.4/x)*x=(100/58)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

63.4=1.72413793103*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.72413793103) to get x

63.4/1.72413793103=x

36.772=x

x=36.772

now we have:

58% of 63.4=36.772
