5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=49393.2
2) x%=13620.6
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%=49393.2/13620.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 13620.6 is what percent of 49393.2
