1.01 is what percent of 44.8 - 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 44.8 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 44.8, so we can write it down as 100%=44.8.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.01 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.01.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44.8
2) x%=1.01
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%=44.8/1.01
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.01 is what percent of 44.8

100%/x%=44.8/1.01
(100/x)*x=(44.8/1.01)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=44.356435643564*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (44.356435643564) to get x
100/44.356435643564=x
2.2544642857143=x
x=2.2544642857143

now we have:
1.01 is 2.2544642857143% of 44.8
