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

1. We assume, that the number 2692.31 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 2692.31, so we can write it down as 100%=2692.31.
4. We know, that x% equals 18.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=18.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2692.31
2) x%=18.63
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%=2692.31/18.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 18.63 is what percent of 2692.31

100%/x%=2692.31/18.63
(100/x)*x=(2692.31/18.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=144.51476113795*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (144.51476113795) to get x
100/144.51476113795=x
0.69197083545357=x
x=0.69197083545357

now we have:
