1. We assume, that the number 8324.61 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 8324.61, so we can write it down as 100%=8324.61.
4. We know, that x% equals 20.63 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=20.63.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8324.61
2) x%=20.63
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%=8324.61/20.63
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 20.63 is what percent of 8324.61
