The following question is of the type "How much X percent of W", where W is the whole amount and X is the percentage figure or rate".
Let's say that you need to find 1488 percent of 4650. What are the steps?
Step 1: first determine the value of the whole amount. We assume that the whole amount is 4650.
Step 2: determine the percentage, which is 1488.
Step 3: Convert the percentage 1488% to its decimal form by dividing 1488 into 100 to get the decimal number 14.88:
1488100 = 14.88
Notice that dividing into 100 is the same as moving the decimal point two places to the left.
1,488.0 → 148.80 → 14.88
Step 4: Finally, find the portion by multiplying the decimal form, found in the previous step, by the whole amount:
14.88 x 4650 = 69192 (answer).
The steps above are expressed by the formula:
P = W × X%100
This formula says that:
"To find the portion or the part from the whole amount, multiply the whole by the percentage, then divide the result by 100".
The symbol % means the percentage expressed in a fraction or multiple of one hundred.
Replacing these values in the formula, we get:
P = 4650 × 1488100 = 4650 × 14.88 = 69192 (answer)
Therefore, the answer is 69192 is 1488 percent of 4650.
