4.19 is what percent of 350 - 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 350 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 350, so we can write it down as 100%=350.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=350
2) x%=4.19
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%=350/4.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.19 is what percent of 350

100%/x%=350/4.19
(100/x)*x=(350/4.19)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=83.532219570406*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (83.532219570406) to get x
100/83.532219570406=x
1.1971428571429=x
x=1.1971428571429

now we have:
4.19 is 1.1971428571429% of 350
