1. We assume, that the number 3999.26 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 3999.26 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3999.26=100%.
4. We know, that x is 27.786% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=27.786%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 3999.26=100%
2) x=27.786%
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:
3999.26/x=100%/27.786%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
