19.12 is what percent of 44.95 - 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 44.95 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 44.95, so we can write it down as 100%=44.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 19.12 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=19.12.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44.95
2) x%=19.12
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%=44.95/19.12
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19.12 is what percent of 44.95

100%/x%=44.95/19.12
(100/x)*x=(44.95/19.12)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.3509414225941*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.3509414225941) to get x
100/2.3509414225941=x
42.536151279199=x
x=42.536151279199

now we have:
19.12 is 42.536151279199% of 44.95
