5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=66058
2) x%=16666.67
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%=66058/16666.67
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 16666.67 is what percent of 66058
