1. We assume, that the number 4056.09 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 4056.09, so we can write it down as 100%=4056.09.
4. We know, that x% equals 219.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=219.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4056.09
2) x%=219.73
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%=4056.09/219.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 219.73 is what percent of 4056.09

100%/x%=4056.09/219.73
(100/x)*x=(4056.09/219.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=18.459427479179*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (18.459427479179) to get x
100/18.459427479179=x
5.4172861055844=x
x=5.4172861055844

now we have:
