5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9263.71
2) x%=1460.43
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%=9263.71/1460.43
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1460.43 is what percent of 9263.71
