4.49 is what percent of 373.25 - 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 373.25 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 373.25, so we can write it down as 100%=373.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.49 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.49.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=373.25
2) x%=4.49
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%=373.25/4.49
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.49 is what percent of 373.25

100%/x%=373.25/4.49
(100/x)*x=(373.25/4.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=83.129175946548*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (83.129175946548) to get x
100/83.129175946548=x
1.2029470864032=x
x=1.2029470864032

now we have:
4.49 is 1.2029470864032% of 373.25
