1. We assume, that the number 119900 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 119900, so we can write it down as 100%=119900.
4. We know, that x% equals 143.89 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=143.89.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=119900
2) x%=143.89
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%=119900/143.89
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 143.89 is what percent of 119900
