5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=106000
2) x%=12903.86
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%=106000/12903.86
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 12903.86 is what percent of 106000
