9.4 is what percent of 4.474 - 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 4.474 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 4.474, so we can write it down as 100%=4.474.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4.474
2) x%=9.4
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%=4.474/9.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.4 is what percent of 4.474

100%/x%=4.474/9.4
(100/x)*x=(4.474/9.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.47595744680851*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.47595744680851) to get x
100/0.47595744680851=x
210.10281627179=x
x=210.10281627179

now we have:
9.4 is 210.10281627179% of 4.474
