5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=7301.16
2) x%=145.99
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%=7301.16/145.99
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 145.99 is what percent of 7301.16
