4.49 is what percent of 5.19 - 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 5.19 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 5.19, so we can write it down as 100%=5.19.
4. We know, that x% equals 4.49 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4.49.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5.19
2) x%=4.49
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%=5.19/4.49
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4.49 is what percent of 5.19

100%/x%=5.19/4.49
(100/x)*x=(5.19/4.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.1559020044543*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.1559020044543) to get x
100/1.1559020044543=x
86.512524084778=x
x=86.512524084778

now we have:
4.49 is 86.512524084778% of 5.19
