5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1782.39
2) x%=1121.13
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%=1782.39/1121.13
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1121.13 is what percent of 1782.39
