What is 4.39 percent of 54.4 - 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 54.4 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 54.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 54.4=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.39% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.39%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 54.4=100%
2) x=4.39%
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:
54.4/x=100%/4.39%
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 4.39% of 54.4

54.4/x=100/4.39
(54.4/x)*x=(100/4.39)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
54.4=22.779043280182*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (22.779043280182) to get x
54.4/22.779043280182=x
2.38816=x
x=2.38816

now we have:
4.39% of 54.4=2.38816
