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

1. We assume, that the number 353.26 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 353.26, so we can write it down as 100%=353.26.
4. We know, that x% equals 382.86 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=382.86.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=353.26
2) x%=382.86
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%=353.26/382.86
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 382.86 is what percent of 353.26
