What is 104 percent of 470?
Answer: 488.8
Below you can find the procedure and formula used to arrive at the above answer.
Steps:
Lets assume 104 percent of 470 is X.
Therefore, we can also say, X = 104% of 470
104% can also be written as 104/100, because percent denotes a number per 100.
So, X = 104/100 × 470
Or, X = 1.04 × 470
So, X = 488.8
So, 104% of 470 is 488.8
(You may also first multiply 104 with 470, and then divide by 100 to find the answer, if that's easier for you.)

Now that we have calculated the answer, lets verify it using the percentage formula.
Answer verification
Percentage = Value/Total Value × 100
LHS (Percentage) = 104
RHS = 488.8/470 × 100
Or, RHS = 1.04 × 100
So, RHS = 104
We can see that LHS = RHS, hence it's proved.
