5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=4504.98
2) x%=130.77
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%=4504.98/130.77
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 130.77 is what percent of 4504.98
