5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=216.36
2) x%=14644.37
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%=216.36/14644.37
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 14644.37 is what percent of 216.36
