4.43 is what percent of 15.3 - 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 15.3 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 100% equals 15.3, so we can write it down as 100%=15.3.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.43 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.43.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=15.3
2) x%=4.43
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:
100%/x%=15.3/4.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.43 is what percent of 15.3

100%/x%=15.3/4.43
(100/x)*x=(15.3/4.43)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.4537246049661*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.4537246049661) to get x
100/3.4537246049661=x
28.954248366013=x
x=28.954248366013

now we have:
4.43 is 28.954248366013% of 15.3
