To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 14.975 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 14.975, so we can write it down as 100%=14.975.
4. We know, that x% equals 15232.28 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=15232.28.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=14.975
2) x%=15232.28
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%=14.975/15232.28
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 15232.28 is what percent of 14.975

100%/x%=14.975/15232.28
(100/x)*x=(14.975/15232.28)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.00098310955418362*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.00098310955418362) to get x
100/0.00098310955418362=x
101718.06343907=x
x=101718.06343907

now we have:
