4.43 is what percent of 32.72 - 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 32.72 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 32.72, so we can write it down as 100%=32.72.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=32.72
2) x%=4.43
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%=32.72/4.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.43 is what percent of 32.72

100%/x%=32.72/4.43
(100/x)*x=(32.72/4.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.3860045146727*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.3860045146727) to get x
100/7.3860045146727=x
13.539119804401=x
x=13.539119804401

now we have:
4.43 is 13.539119804401% of 32.72
