4.09 is what percent of 44.25 - 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 44.25 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 44.25, so we can write it down as 100%=44.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.09 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.09.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44.25
2) x%=4.09
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%=44.25/4.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.09 is what percent of 44.25

100%/x%=44.25/4.09
(100/x)*x=(44.25/4.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.819070904645*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.819070904645) to get x
100/10.819070904645=x
9.2429378531073=x
x=9.2429378531073

now we have:
4.09 is 9.2429378531073% of 44.25
