1. We assume, that the number 52588.4 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 52588.4, so we can write it down as 100%=52588.4.
4. We know, that x% equals 63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=52588.4
2) x%=63
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%=52588.4/63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 63 is what percent of 52588.4

100%/x%=52588.4/63
(100/x)*x=(52588.4/63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=834.73650793651*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (834.73650793651) to get x
100/834.73650793651=x
0.11979828251097=x
x=0.11979828251097

now we have:
