1. We assume, that the number 126999.6 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 126999.6 is 100%, so we can write it down as 126999.6=100%.
4. We know, that x is 29.249% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=29.249%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 126999.6=100%
2) x=29.249%
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:
126999.6/x=100%/29.249%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
