5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1635.15
2) x%=1390.75
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%=1635.15/1390.75
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1390.75 is what percent of 1635.15
