1. We assume, that the number 2288.73 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 2288.73, so we can write it down as 100%=2288.73.
4. We know, that x% equals 91.55 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=91.55.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2288.73
2) x%=91.55
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%=2288.73/91.55
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 91.55 is what percent of 2288.73

(100/x)*x=(2288.73/91.55)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=24.999781540142*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (24.999781540142) to get x
100/24.999781540142=x
4.0000349538827=x
x=4.0000349538827

now we have:
