1. We assume, that the number 4983.007 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 4983.007 is 100%, so we can write it down as 4983.007=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.782% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.782%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 4983.007=100%
2) x=5.782%
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:
4983.007/x=100%/5.782%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
