1. We assume, that the number 17083633 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 17083633 is 100%, so we can write it down as 17083633=100%.
4. We know, that x is 49.21% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=49.21%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 17083633=100%
2) x=49.21%
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:
17083633/x=100%/49.21%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
