To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 172 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 172, so we can write it down as 100%=172.
4. We know, that x% equals 15 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=172
2) x%=15
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%=172/15

100/11.4666666667=x
8.72093023256=x
x=8.72093023256

now we have:
15 is 8.72093023256% of 172
