1. We assume, that the number 5654.04 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 5654.04, so we can write it down as 100%=5654.04.
4. We know, that x% equals 2692.4 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2692.4.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=5654.04
2) x%=2692.4
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%=5654.04/2692.4
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2692.4 is what percent of 5654.04
