What is 44.4 percent of 1009 - 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 1009 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 1009 is 100%, so we can write it down as 1009=100%.
4. We know, that x is 44.4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=44.4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 1009=100%
2) x=44.4%
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:
1009/x=100%/44.4%
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 44.4% of 1009

1009/x=100/44.4
(1009/x)*x=(100/44.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
1009=2.2522522522523*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2522522522523) to get x
1009/2.2522522522523=x
447.996=x
x=447.996

now we have:
44.4% of 1009=447.996
