5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1878.75
2) x%=1346.09
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%=1878.75/1346.09
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1346.09 is what percent of 1878.75

(100/x)*x=(1878.75/1346.09)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3957090536294*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3957090536294) to get x
100/1.3957090536294=x
71.648170326015=x
x=71.648170326015

now we have:
