What is 1.044 percent of 480000 - 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 480000 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 480000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 480000=100%.
4. We know, that x is 1.044% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=1.044%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 480000=100%
2) x=1.044%
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:
480000/x=100%/1.044%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 1.044% of 480000

480000/x=100/1.044
(480000/x)*x=(100/1.044)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
480000=95.785440613027*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (95.785440613027) to get x
480000/95.785440613027=x
5011.2=x
x=5011.2

now we have:
1.044% of 480000=5011.2
