1. We assume, that the number 308.704 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 308.704, so we can write it down as 100%=308.704.
4. We know, that x% equals 109.95 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=109.95.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=308.704
2) x%=109.95
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%=308.704/109.95
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 109.95 is what percent of 308.704

(100/x)*x=(308.704/109.95)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.807676216462*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.807676216462) to get x
100/2.807676216462=x
35.616642479527=x
x=35.616642479527

now we have:
