7.46 is what percent of 4663 - 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 4663 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 4663, so we can write it down as 100%=4663.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.46 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.46.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4663
2) x%=7.46
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%=4663/7.46
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.46 is what percent of 4663

100%/x%=4663/7.46
(100/x)*x=(4663/7.46)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=625.06702412869*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (625.06702412869) to get x
100/625.06702412869=x
0.15998284366288=x
x=0.15998284366288

now we have:
7.46 is 0.15998284366288% of 4663
