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

1. We assume, that the number 777.851 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 777.851, so we can write it down as 100%=777.851.
4. We know, that x% equals 22.41 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=22.41.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=777.851
2) x%=22.41
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%=777.851/22.41
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 22.41 is what percent of 777.851

(100/x)*x=(777.851/22.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=34.709995537706*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (34.709995537706) to get x
100/34.709995537706=x
2.8810144873504=x
x=2.8810144873504

now we have:
