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

1. We assume, that the number 820.94 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 820.94, so we can write it down as 100%=820.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 246.73 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=246.73.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=820.94
2) x%=246.73
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%=820.94/246.73
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 246.73 is what percent of 820.94

100%/x%=820.94/246.73
(100/x)*x=(820.94/246.73)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.3272808332996*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.3272808332996) to get x
100/3.3272808332996=x
30.054571588667=x
x=30.054571588667

now we have:
