5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=54922.3
2) x%=1510.36
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%=54922.3/1510.36
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1510.36 is what percent of 54922.3
