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

1. We assume, that the number 658.94 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 658.94, so we can write it down as 100%=658.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 26.69 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=26.69.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=658.94
2) x%=26.69
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%=658.94/26.69
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 26.69 is what percent of 658.94

(100/x)*x=(658.94/26.69)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.688647433496*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.688647433496) to get x
100/24.688647433496=x
4.0504446535345=x
x=4.0504446535345

now we have:
