1. We assume, that the number 25.791 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 25.791, so we can write it down as 100%=25.791.
4. We know, that x% equals 469.57 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=469.57.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=25.791
2) x%=469.57
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%=25.791/469.57
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 469.57 is what percent of 25.791
