489.06 is what percent of 1935 - 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 1935 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 1935, so we can write it down as 100%=1935.
4. We know, that x% equals 489.06 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=489.06.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1935
2) x%=489.06
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%=1935/489.06
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 489.06 is what percent of 1935

100%/x%=1935/489.06
(100/x)*x=(1935/489.06)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.9565697460434*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.9565697460434) to get x
100/3.9565697460434=x
25.274418604651=x
x=25.274418604651

now we have:
489.06 is 25.274418604651% of 1935
