1. We assume, that the number 1141.63 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 1141.63, so we can write it down as 100%=1141.63.
4. We know, that x% equals 81.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=81.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1141.63
2) x%=81.63
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%=1141.63/81.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 81.63 is what percent of 1141.63

(100/x)*x=(1141.63/81.63)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=13.985422026216*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (13.985422026216) to get x
100/13.985422026216=x
7.150302637457=x
x=7.150302637457

now we have:
