219.3 is what percent of 5470 - 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 5470 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 5470, so we can write it down as 100%=5470.
4. We know, that x% equals 219.3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=219.3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5470
2) x%=219.3
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%=5470/219.3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 219.3 is what percent of 5470

100%/x%=5470/219.3
(100/x)*x=(5470/219.3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.943000455996*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.943000455996) to get x
100/24.943000455996=x
4.0091407678245=x
x=4.0091407678245

now we have:
219.3 is 4.0091407678245% of 5470
