1. We assume, that the number 23130.34 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 23130.34, so we can write it down as 100%=23130.34.
4. We know, that x% equals 129.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=129.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=23130.34
2) x%=129.5
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%=23130.34/129.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 129.5 is what percent of 23130.34
