6 is what percent of 4335 - 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 4335 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 4335, so we can write it down as 100%=4335.
4. We know, that x% equals 6 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4335
2) x%=6
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%=4335/6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6 is what percent of 4335

100%/x%=4335/6
(100/x)*x=(4335/6)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=722.5*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (722.5) to get x
100/722.5=x
0.13840830449827=x
x=0.13840830449827

now we have:
6 is 0.13840830449827% of 4335
