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

1. We assume, that the number 46650 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 46650, so we can write it down as 100%=46650.
4. We know, that x% equals 2188.35 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=2188.35.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=46650
2) x%=2188.35
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%=46650/2188.35
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2188.35 is what percent of 46650

(100/x)*x=(46650/2188.35)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=21.31743094112*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (21.31743094112) to get x
100/21.31743094112=x
4.6909967845659=x
x=4.6909967845659

now we have:
