1. We assume, that the number 42.799 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 42.799 is 100%, so we can write it down as 42.799=100%.
4. We know, that x is 690.714% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=690.714%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 42.799=100%
2) x=690.714%
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:
42.799/x=100%/690.714%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 690.714% of 42.799
