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

1. We assume, that the number 9658.08 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 9658.08, so we can write it down as 100%=9658.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 23.49 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=23.49.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9658.08
2) x%=23.49
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%=9658.08/23.49
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 23.49 is what percent of 9658.08

100%/x%=9658.08/23.49
(100/x)*x=(9658.08/23.49)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=411.15708812261*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (411.15708812261) to get x
100/411.15708812261=x
0.24321604294021=x
x=0.24321604294021

now we have:
