1. We assume, that the number 10386.05 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 10386.05, so we can write it down as 100%=10386.05.
4. We know, that x% equals 4559.2 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=4559.2.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=10386.05
2) x%=4559.2
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%=10386.05/4559.2
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 4559.2 is what percent of 10386.05

(100/x)*x=(10386.05/4559.2)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.278042200386*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.278042200386) to get x
100/2.278042200386=x
43.897343070754=x
x=43.897343070754

now we have:
