1. We assume, that the number 25880.15 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 25880.15 is 100%, so we can write it down as 25880.15=100%.
4. We know, that x is 5.098% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=5.098%.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 25880.15=100%
2) x=5.098%
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:
25880.15/x=100%/5.098%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
