What is 4.876 percent of 384 - 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 384 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 384 is 100%, so we can write it down as 384=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.876% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.876%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 384=100%
2) x=4.876%
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:
384/x=100%/4.876%
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 4.876% of 384

384/x=100/4.876
(384/x)*x=(100/4.876)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
384=20.508613617719*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (20.508613617719) to get x
384/20.508613617719=x
18.72384=x
x=18.72384

now we have:
4.876% of 384=18.72384
