What is 3.48 percent of 4.213 - 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 4.213 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 4.213 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4.213=100%.
4. We know, that x is 3.48% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=3.48%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4.213=100%
2) x=3.48%
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:
4.213/x=100%/3.48%
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 3.48% of 4.213

4.213/x=100/3.48
(4.213/x)*x=(100/3.48)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4.213=28.735632183908*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (28.735632183908) to get x
4.213/28.735632183908=x
0.1466124=x
x=0.1466124

now we have:
3.48% of 4.213=0.1466124
