1. We assume, that the number 33705.96 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 33705.96 is 100%, so we can write it down as 33705.96=100%.
4. We know, that x is 85.33% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=85.33%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 33705.96=100%
2) x=85.33%
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:
33705.96/x=100%/85.33%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
