571.1 is what percent of 4800 - 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 4800 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 4800, so we can write it down as 100%=4800.
4. We know, that x% equals 571.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=571.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4800
2) x%=571.1
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%=4800/571.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 571.1 is what percent of 4800

100%/x%=4800/571.1
(100/x)*x=(4800/571.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.4048327788478*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.4048327788478) to get x
100/8.4048327788478=x
11.897916666667=x
x=11.897916666667

now we have:
571.1 is 11.897916666667% of 4800
