1. We assume, that the number 1495.79 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 1495.79, so we can write it down as 100%=1495.79.
4. We know, that x% equals 193.52 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=193.52.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1495.79
2) x%=193.52
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%=1495.79/193.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 193.52 is what percent of 1495.79

100%/x%=1495.79/193.52
(100/x)*x=(1495.79/193.52)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=7.7293819760231*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (7.7293819760231) to get x
100/7.7293819760231=x
12.937644990273=x
x=12.937644990273

now we have:
