1. We assume, that the number 6615.93 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 6615.93, so we can write it down as 100%=6615.93.
4. We know, that x% equals 21.32 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=21.32.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6615.93
2) x%=21.32
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%=6615.93/21.32
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 21.32 is what percent of 6615.93

(100/x)*x=(6615.93/21.32)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=310.31566604128*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (310.31566604128) to get x
100/310.31566604128=x
0.32225250267158=x
x=0.32225250267158

now we have:
