1. We assume, that the number 80021.94 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 80021.94, so we can write it down as 100%=80021.94.
4. We know, that x% equals 36.19 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=36.19.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=80021.94
2) x%=36.19
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%=80021.94/36.19
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 36.19 is what percent of 80021.94

100/2211.1616468638=x
0.045225097017143=x
x=0.045225097017143

now we have:
