4. We know, that x% equals 10.36 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10.36.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=17922.71
2) x%=10.36
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%=17922.71/10.36
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10.36 is what percent of 17922.71
