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

1. We assume, that the number 1229.65 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 1229.65, so we can write it down as 100%=1229.65.
4. We know, that x% equals 610.82 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=610.82.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1229.65
2) x%=610.82
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%=1229.65/610.82
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 610.82 is what percent of 1229.65

100%/x%=1229.65/610.82
(100/x)*x=(1229.65/610.82)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0131135195311*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0131135195311) to get x
100/2.0131135195311=x
49.674297564348=x
x=49.674297564348

now we have:
610.82 is 49.674297564348% of 1229.65
