3.19 is what percent of 46.81 - 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 46.81 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 46.81, so we can write it down as 100%=46.81.
4. We know, that x% equals 3.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=46.81
2) x%=3.19
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%=46.81/3.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3.19 is what percent of 46.81

100%/x%=46.81/3.19
(100/x)*x=(46.81/3.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.673981191223*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.673981191223) to get x
100/14.673981191223=x
6.8147831659902=x
x=6.8147831659902

now we have:
3.19 is 6.8147831659902% of 46.81
