962.07 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 962.07 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=962.07.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4800
2) x%=962.07
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%=4800/962.07
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 962.07 is what percent of 4800

100%/x%=4800/962.07
(100/x)*x=(4800/962.07)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.9892419470517*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.9892419470517) to get x
100/4.9892419470517=x
20.043125=x
x=20.043125

now we have:
962.07 is 20.043125% of 4800
