What is 4.59 percent of 1269.48 - 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 1269.48 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 1269.48 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1269.48=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.59% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.59%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1269.48=100%
2) x=4.59%
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:
1269.48/x=100%/4.59%
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 4.59% of 1269.48

1269.48/x=100/4.59
(1269.48/x)*x=(100/4.59)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
