22 is what percent of 4880000 - 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 4880000 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 4880000, so we can write it down as 100%=4880000.
4. We know, that x% equals 22 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4880000
2) x%=22
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%=4880000/22
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22 is what percent of 4880000

100%/x%=4880000/22
(100/x)*x=(4880000/22)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=221818.18181818*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (221818.18181818) to get x
100/221818.18181818=x
0.00045081967213115=x
x=0.00045081967213115

now we have:
22 is 0.00045081967213115% of 4880000
