1. We assume, that the number 217.99 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 217.99 is 100%, so we can write it down as 217.99=100%.
4. We know, that x is 114.17156641037% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=114.17156641037%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 217.99=100%
2) x=114.17156641037%
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:
217.99/x=100%/114.17156641037%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
