1. We assume, that the number 478.756 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 478.756 is 100%, so we can write it down as 478.756=100%.
4. We know, that x is 73.449% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=73.449%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 478.756=100%
2) x=73.449%
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:
478.756/x=100%/73.449%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
