What is 48.85 percent of 425 - 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 425 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 425 is 100%, so we can write it down as 425=100%.
4. We know, that x is 48.85% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=48.85%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 425=100%
2) x=48.85%
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:
425/x=100%/48.85%
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 48.85% of 425

425/x=100/48.85
(425/x)*x=(100/48.85)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
425=2.0470829068577*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0470829068577) to get x
425/2.0470829068577=x
207.6125=x
x=207.6125

now we have:
48.85% of 425=207.6125
