1. We assume, that the number 155.319 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 155.319, so we can write it down as 100%=155.319.
4. We know, that x% equals 150.66 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=150.66.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=155.319
2) x%=150.66
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%=155.319/150.66
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 150.66 is what percent of 155.319
