4.39 is what percent of 3.89 - 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 3.89 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 3.89, so we can write it down as 100%=3.89.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.39 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.39.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3.89
2) x%=4.39
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%=3.89/4.39
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.39 is what percent of 3.89

100%/x%=3.89/4.39
(100/x)*x=(3.89/4.39)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.88610478359909*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.88610478359909) to get x
100/0.88610478359909=x
112.85347043702=x
x=112.85347043702

now we have:
4.39 is 112.85347043702% of 3.89
