1169.57 is what percent of 4.678 - 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 4.678 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 4.678, so we can write it down as 100%=4.678.
4. We know, that x% equals 1169.57 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1169.57.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4.678
2) x%=1169.57
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%=4.678/1169.57
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1169.57 is what percent of 4.678

100%/x%=4.678/1169.57
(100/x)*x=(4.678/1169.57)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.0039997605957745*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.0039997605957745) to get x
100/0.0039997605957745=x
25001.496365968=x
x=25001.496365968

now we have:
1169.57 is 25001.496365968% of 4.678
