What is 15.475 percent of 4950 - 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 4950 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 4950 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4950=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15.475% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15.475%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4950=100%
2) x=15.475%
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:
4950/x=100%/15.475%
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 15.475% of 4950

4950/x=100/15.475
(4950/x)*x=(100/15.475)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4950=6.4620355411955*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (6.4620355411955) to get x
4950/6.4620355411955=x
766.0125=x
x=766.0125

now we have:
15.475% of 4950=766.0125
