1. We assume, that the number 33110 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 33110, so we can write it down as 100%=33110.
4. We know, that x% equals 5544.11 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=5544.11.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=33110
2) x%=5544.11
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%=33110/5544.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 5544.11 is what percent of 33110

100%/x%=33110/5544.11
(100/x)*x=(33110/5544.11)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=5.9721037281006*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (5.9721037281006) to get x
100/5.9721037281006=x
16.744518272425=x
x=16.744518272425

now we have:
