446.25 is what percent of 1474.38 - 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 1474.38 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 1474.38, so we can write it down as 100%=1474.38.
4. We know, that x% equals 446.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=446.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1474.38
2) x%=446.25
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%=1474.38/446.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 446.25 is what percent of 1474.38

100%/x%=1474.38/446.25
(100/x)*x=(1474.38/446.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.3039327731092*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.3039327731092) to get x
100/3.3039327731092=x
30.266959671184=x
x=30.266959671184

now we have:
446.25 is 30.266959671184% of 1474.38
