What is 9.31 percent of 49 - 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 49 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 49 is 100%, so we can write it down as 49=100%.
4. We know, that x is 9.31% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=9.31%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 49=100%
2) x=9.31%
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:
49/x=100%/9.31%
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 9.31% of 49

49/x=100/9.31
(49/x)*x=(100/9.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
49=10.741138560687*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.741138560687) to get x
49/10.741138560687=x
4.5619=x
x=4.5619

now we have:
9.31% of 49=4.5619
