444.63 is what percent of 470 - 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 470 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 470, so we can write it down as 100%=470.
4. We know, that x% equals 444.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=444.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=470
2) x%=444.63
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%=470/444.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 444.63 is what percent of 470

100%/x%=470/444.63
(100/x)*x=(470/444.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0570586780019*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0570586780019) to get x
100/1.0570586780019=x
94.602127659574=x
x=94.602127659574

now we have:
444.63 is 94.602127659574% of 470
