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

1. We assume, that the number 671.08 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 671.08, so we can write it down as 100%=671.08.
4. We know, that x% equals 77.58 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=77.58.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=671.08
2) x%=77.58
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%=671.08/77.58
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 77.58 is what percent of 671.08

100%/x%=671.08/77.58
(100/x)*x=(671.08/77.58)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=8.6501675689611*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (8.6501675689611) to get x
100/8.6501675689611=x
11.560469690648=x
x=11.560469690648

now we have:
