What is 44.4444 percent of 17 - 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 17 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 17 is 100%, so we can write it down as 17=100%.
4. We know, that x is 44.4444% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=44.4444%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 17=100%
2) x=44.4444%
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:
17/x=100%/44.4444%
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 44.4444% of 17

17/x=100/44.4444
(17/x)*x=(100/44.4444)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
17=2.2500022500022*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.2500022500022) to get x
17/2.2500022500022=x
7.555548=x
x=7.555548

now we have:
44.4444% of 17=7.555548
