41.53 is what percent of 44 - 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 44 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 44, so we can write it down as 100%=44.
4. We know, that x% equals 41.53 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=41.53.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44
2) x%=41.53
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%=44/41.53
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 41.53 is what percent of 44

100%/x%=44/41.53
(100/x)*x=(44/41.53)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0594750782567*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0594750782567) to get x
100/1.0594750782567=x
94.386363636364=x
x=94.386363636364

now we have:
41.53 is 94.386363636364% of 44
