1 is what percent of 4938 - 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 4938 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 4938, so we can write it down as 100%=4938.
4. We know, that x% equals 1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4938
2) x%=1
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%=4938/1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1 is what percent of 4938

100%/x%=4938/1
(100/x)*x=(4938/1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4938*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4938) to get x
100/4938=x
0.02025111381126=x
x=0.02025111381126

now we have:
1 is 0.02025111381126% of 4938
