1. We assume, that the number 10473.31 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 10473.31, so we can write it down as 100%=10473.31.
4. We know, that x% equals 2058.37 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2058.37.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10473.31
