What is 4.712 percent of 93.17 - 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 93.17 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 93.17 is 100%, so we can write it down as 93.17=100%.
4. We know, that x is 4.712% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=4.712%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 93.17=100%
2) x=4.712%
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:
93.17/x=100%/4.712%
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 4.712% of 93.17

93.17/x=100/4.712
(93.17/x)*x=(100/4.712)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
93.17=21.222410865874*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (21.222410865874) to get x
93.17/21.222410865874=x
4.3901704=x
x=4.3901704

now we have:
4.712% of 93.17=4.3901704
