5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3137.92
2) x%=1518.67
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%=3137.92/1518.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1518.67 is what percent of 3137.92

(100/x)*x=(3137.92/1518.67)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=2.0662290030092*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (2.0662290030092) to get x
100/2.0662290030092=x
48.397346012645=x
x=48.397346012645

now we have:
