434.95 is what percent of 475 - 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 475 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 475, so we can write it down as 100%=475.
4. We know, that x% equals 434.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=434.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=475
2) x%=434.95
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%=475/434.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 434.95 is what percent of 475

100%/x%=475/434.95
(100/x)*x=(475/434.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0920795493735*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0920795493735) to get x
100/1.0920795493735=x
91.568421052632=x
x=91.568421052632

now we have:
434.95 is 91.568421052632% of 475
