4.32 is what percent of 9.06 - 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 9.06 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 9.06, so we can write it down as 100%=9.06.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9.06
2) x%=4.32
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%=9.06/4.32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.32 is what percent of 9.06

100%/x%=9.06/4.32
(100/x)*x=(9.06/4.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0972222222222*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0972222222222) to get x
100/2.0972222222222=x
47.682119205298=x
x=47.682119205298

now we have:
4.32 is 47.682119205298% of 9.06
