1. We assume, that the number 2046.78 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 2046.78, so we can write it down as 100%=2046.78.
4. We know, that x% equals 444.64 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=444.64.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2046.78
2) x%=444.64
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%=2046.78/444.64
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 444.64 is what percent of 2046.78
