What is 49.93 percent of 493 - 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 493 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 493 is 100%, so we can write it down as 493=100%.
4. We know, that x is 49.93% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=49.93%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 493=100%
2) x=49.93%
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:
493/x=100%/49.93%
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 49.93% of 493

493/x=100/49.93
(493/x)*x=(100/49.93)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
493=2.0028039254957*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0028039254957) to get x
493/2.0028039254957=x
246.1549=x
x=246.1549

now we have:
49.93% of 493=246.1549
