1. We assume, that the number 533.51 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 533.51, so we can write it down as 100%=533.51.
4. We know, that x% equals 3904.27 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=3904.27.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=533.51
2) x%=3904.27
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%=533.51/3904.27
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 3904.27 is what percent of 533.51
