1. We assume, that the number 18.56467 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 18.56467, so we can write it down as 100%=18.56467.
4. We know, that x% equals 1.83 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=1.83.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=18.56467
2) x%=1.83
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%=18.56467/1.83
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1.83 is what percent of 18.56467

(100/x)*x=(18.56467/1.83)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=10.144628415301*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (10.144628415301) to get x
100/10.144628415301=x
9.8574335013765=x
x=9.8574335013765

now we have:
