5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=56157
2) x%=1663.65
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%=56157/1663.65
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1663.65 is what percent of 56157
