2.08 is what percent of 4370 - 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 4370 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 4370, so we can write it down as 100%=4370.
4. We know, that x% equals 2.08 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2.08.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4370
2) x%=2.08
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%=4370/2.08
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2.08 is what percent of 4370

100%/x%=4370/2.08
(100/x)*x=(4370/2.08)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2100.9615384615*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2100.9615384615) to get x
100/2100.9615384615=x
0.047597254004577=x
x=0.047597254004577

now we have:
2.08 is 0.047597254004577% of 4370
