4 is what percent of 4041 - 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 4041 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 4041, so we can write it down as 100%=4041.
4. We know, that x% equals 4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4041
2) x%=4
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%=4041/4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4 is what percent of 4041

100%/x%=4041/4
(100/x)*x=(4041/4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1010.25*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1010.25) to get x
100/1010.25=x
0.098985399653551=x
x=0.098985399653551

now we have:
4 is 0.098985399653551% of 4041
