5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1543.76
2) x%=1584.91
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%=1543.76/1584.91
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1584.91 is what percent of 1543.76
