To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 28310 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 100% equals 28310, so we can write it down as 100%=28310.
4. We know, that x% equals 10701.31 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=10701.31.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=28310
2) x%=10701.31
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:
100%/x%=28310/10701.31
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 10701.31 is what percent of 28310

(100/x)*x=(28310/10701.31)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.64547050782*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.64547050782) to get x
100/2.64547050782=x
37.8004592017=x
x=37.8004592017

now we have:
