7 is what percent of 4483 - 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 4483 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 4483, so we can write it down as 100%=4483.
4. We know, that x% equals 7 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4483
2) x%=7
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%=4483/7
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7 is what percent of 4483

100%/x%=4483/7
(100/x)*x=(4483/7)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=640.42857142857*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (640.42857142857) to get x
100/640.42857142857=x
0.15614543832255=x
x=0.15614543832255

now we have:
7 is 0.15614543832255% of 4483
