4.82 is what percent of 136 - 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 136 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 136, so we can write it down as 100%=136.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.82 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.82.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=136
2) x%=4.82
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%=136/4.82
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.82 is what percent of 136

100%/x%=136/4.82
(100/x)*x=(136/4.82)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=28.215767634855*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.215767634855) to get x
100/28.215767634855=x
3.5441176470588=x
x=3.5441176470588

now we have:
4.82 is 3.5441176470588% of 136
