3 is what percent of 4814 - 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 4814 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 4814, so we can write it down as 100%=4814.
4. We know, that x% equals 3 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4814
2) x%=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%=4814/3
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3 is what percent of 4814

100%/x%=4814/3
(100/x)*x=(4814/3)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1604.6666666667*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1604.6666666667) to get x
100/1604.6666666667=x
0.062318238471126=x
x=0.062318238471126

now we have:
3 is 0.062318238471126% of 4814
