What is 4.464 percent of 473.88 - 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 473.88 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 473.88 is 100%, so we can write it down as 473.88=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.464% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.464%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 473.88=100%
2) x=4.464%
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:
473.88/x=100%/4.464%
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 4.464% of 473.88

473.88/x=100/4.464
(473.88/x)*x=(100/4.464)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
473.88=22.401433691756*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (22.401433691756) to get x
473.88/22.401433691756=x
21.1540032=x
x=21.1540032

now we have:
