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

1. We assume, that the number 1936.99 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 1936.99, so we can write it down as 100%=1936.99.
4. We know, that x% equals 593.44 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=593.44.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1936.99
2) x%=593.44
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%=1936.99/593.44
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 593.44 is what percent of 1936.99

100%/x%=1936.99/593.44
(100/x)*x=(1936.99/593.44)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=3.2640031005662*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.2640031005662) to get x
100/3.2640031005662=x
30.637225798791=x
x=30.637225798791

now we have:
