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

1. We assume, that the number 1826.41 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 1826.41, so we can write it down as 100%=1826.41.
4. We know, that x% equals 76.41 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=76.41.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1826.41
2) x%=76.41
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%=1826.41/76.41
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 76.41 is what percent of 1826.41

100%/x%=1826.41/76.41
(100/x)*x=(1826.41/76.41)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=23.902761418662*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (23.902761418662) to get x
100/23.902761418662=x
4.1836170410806=x
x=4.1836170410806

now we have:
