Question: 468 is what percent of 486?

Percentage solution with steps:

Step 1: We make the assumption that 486 is 100% since it is our output value.

Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with $x$.

Step 3: From step 1, it follows that $100\%=486$.

Step 4: In the same vein, $x\%=468$.

Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:

$100\%=486(1)$.

$x\%=468(2)$.

Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS

(left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have

$frac{100%}{x%}=frac{486}{468}$

Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields

$frac{x%}{100%}=\frac{468}{486}$

$Rightarrow x=96.3%$

Therefore, $468$ is $96.3%$ of $486$.
