What is 50.55 percent of 495 - 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 495 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 495 is 100%, so we can write it down as 495=100%.
4. We know, that x is 50.55% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=50.55%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 495=100%
2) x=50.55%
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:
495/x=100%/50.55%
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 50.55% of 495

495/x=100/50.55
(495/x)*x=(100/50.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
495=1.9782393669634*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.9782393669634) to get x
495/1.9782393669634=x
250.2225=x
x=250.2225

now we have:
50.55% of 495=250.2225
