4.49 is what percent of 62.93 - 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 62.93 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 62.93, so we can write it down as 100%=62.93.
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%=62.93
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%=62.93/4.49
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 62.93

100%/x%=62.93/4.49
(100/x)*x=(62.93/4.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.015590200445*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.015590200445) to get x
100/14.015590200445=x
7.1349118067694=x
x=7.1349118067694

now we have:
4.49 is 7.1349118067694% of 62.93
