What is 97.4 percent of 4823 - 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 4823 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 4823 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4823=100%.
4. We know, that x is 97.4% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=97.4%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4823=100%
2) x=97.4%
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:
4823/x=100%/97.4%
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 97.4% of 4823

4823/x=100/97.4
(4823/x)*x=(100/97.4)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
4823=1.0266940451745*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0266940451745) to get x
4823/1.0266940451745=x
4697.602=x
x=4697.602

now we have:
97.4% of 4823=4697.602
