Answer:

90%

Explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 5400 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 100% equals 5400, so we can write it down as 100%=5400.

4. We know, that x% equals 6000 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6000.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 100%=5400

2) x%=6000

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:

100%/x%=5400/6000

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6000 is what percent of 5400
