What is 4.52 percent of 42049 - 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 42049 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 42049 is 100%, so we can write it down as 42049=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.52% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.52%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 42049=100%
2) x=4.52%
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:
42049/x=100%/4.52%
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 4.52% of 42049

42049/x=100/4.52
(42049/x)*x=(100/4.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
42049=22.12389380531*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (22.12389380531) to get x
42049/22.12389380531=x
1900.6148=x
x=1900.6148

now we have:
4.52% of 42049=1900.6148
