1. We assume, that the number 2338.57 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 2338.57, so we can write it down as 100%=2338.57.
4. We know, that x% equals 2554.8 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2554.8.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2338.57
2) x%=2554.8
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%=2338.57/2554.8
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2554.8 is what percent of 2338.57

(100/x)*x=(2338.57/2554.8)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.91536323782684*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.91536323782684) to get x
100/0.91536323782684=x
109.24624877596=x
x=109.24624877596

now we have:
