1. We assume, that the number 954.25 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 954.25, so we can write it down as 100%=954.25.
4. We know, that x% equals 483.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=483.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=954.25
2) x%=483.35
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%=954.25/483.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 483.35 is what percent of 954.25

(100/x)*x=(954.25/483.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.974242267508*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.974242267508) to get x
100/1.974242267508=x
50.652344773382=x
x=50.652344773382

now we have:
