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

1. We assume, that the number 39114.2 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 39114.2, so we can write it down as 100%=39114.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 4136.5 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4136.5.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=39114.2
2) x%=4136.5
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%=39114.2/4136.5
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4136.5 is what percent of 39114.2

100%/x%=39114.2/4136.5
(100/x)*x=(39114.2/4136.5)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=9.455868487852*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (9.455868487852) to get x
100/9.455868487852=x
10.57544318943=x
x=10.57544318943

now we have:
