1. We assume, that the number 1159.86 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 1159.86, so we can write it down as 100%=1159.86.

5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1159.86
2) x%=1133.64
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%=1159.86/1133.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1133.64 is what percent of 1159.86

(100/x)*x=(1159.86/1133.64)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.0231290356727*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.0231290356727) to get x
100/1.0231290356727=x
97.739382339248=x
x=97.739382339248

now we have:
