1. We assume, that the number 6841.2 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 6841.2, so we can write it down as 100%=6841.2.
4. We know, that x% equals 6111.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=6111.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6841.2
2) x%=6111.2
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%=6841.2/6111.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 6111.2 is what percent of 6841.2
