1) 100%=159
2) x%=157
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%=159/157
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 157 is what percent of 159

100%/x%=159/157

100/1.0127388535032=x
98.74213836478=x
x=98.74213836478

now we have:
157 is 98.74213836478% of 159
