4.29 is what percent of 2460.95 - 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 2460.95 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 2460.95, so we can write it down as 100%=2460.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.29 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.29.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2460.95
2) x%=4.29
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%=2460.95/4.29
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.29 is what percent of 2460.95

100%/x%=2460.95/4.29
(100/x)*x=(2460.95/4.29)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=573.64801864802*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (573.64801864802) to get x
100/573.64801864802=x
0.17432292407404=x
x=0.17432292407404

now we have:
