1. We assume, that the number 121766.5 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 121766.5, so we can write it down as 100%=121766.5.
4. We know, that x% equals 8368.1 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=8368.1.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=121766.5
2) x%=8368.1
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%=121766.5/8368.1
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 8368.1 is what percent of 121766.5

(100/x)*x=(121766.5/8368.1)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=14.551272092829*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (14.551272092829) to get x
100/14.551272092829=x
6.8722513991944=x
x=6.8722513991944

now we have:
