9.95 is what percent of 44.85 - 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 44.85 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 44.85, so we can write it down as 100%=44.85.
4. We know, that x% equals 9.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=9.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=44.85
2) x%=9.95
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%=44.85/9.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 9.95 is what percent of 44.85

100%/x%=44.85/9.95
(100/x)*x=(44.85/9.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=4.5075376884422*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (4.5075376884422) to get x
100/4.5075376884422=x
22.185061315496=x
x=22.185061315496

now we have:
9.95 is 22.185061315496% of 44.85
