4.23 is what percent of 13.39 - 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 13.39 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 13.39, so we can write it down as 100%=13.39.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.23 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.23.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=13.39
2) x%=4.23
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%=13.39/4.23
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.23 is what percent of 13.39

100%/x%=13.39/4.23
(100/x)*x=(13.39/4.23)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.1654846335697*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.1654846335697) to get x
100/3.1654846335697=x
31.59073935773=x
x=31.59073935773

now we have:
4.23 is 31.59073935773% of 13.39
