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

1. We assume, that the number 672.95 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 672.95, so we can write it down as 100%=672.95.
4. We know, that x% equals 726.65 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=726.65.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=672.95
2) x%=726.65
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%=672.95/726.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 726.65 is what percent of 672.95

(100/x)*x=(672.95/726.65)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=0.92609922245923*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (0.92609922245923) to get x
100/0.92609922245923=x
107.97979047478=x
x=107.97979047478

now we have:
