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%=14652.31/1428.6
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1428.6 is what percent of 14652.31
