4.66 is what percent of 14.25 - 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 14.25 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 14.25, so we can write it down as 100%=14.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=14.25
2) x%=4.66
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%=14.25/4.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.66 is what percent of 14.25

100%/x%=14.25/4.66
(100/x)*x=(14.25/4.66)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.0579399141631*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.0579399141631) to get x
100/3.0579399141631=x
32.701754385965=x
x=32.701754385965

now we have:
4.66 is 32.701754385965% of 14.25
