1. We assume, that the number 35199 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 35199, so we can write it down as 100%=35199.
4. We know, that x% equals 27807 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=27807.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=35199
2) x%=27807
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%=35199/27807
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 27807 is what percent of 35199
