5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7110.81
2) x%=1140.18
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%=7110.81/1140.18
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1140.18 is what percent of 7110.81
