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

1. We assume, that the number 78510 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 78510, so we can write it down as 100%=78510.
4. We know, that x% equals 556.25 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=556.25.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=78510
2) x%=556.25
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%=78510/556.25
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 556.25 is what percent of 78510

(100/x)*x=(78510/556.25)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=141.14157303371*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (141.14157303371) to get x
100/141.14157303371=x
0.70850847025857=x
x=0.70850847025857

now we have:
