1. We assume, that the number 2.999 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 2.999 is 100%, so we can write it down as 2.999=100%.
4. We know, that x is 15% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=15%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 2.999=100%
2) x=15%
