5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=2423.07
2) x%=1815.77
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%=2423.07/1815.77
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1815.77 is what percent of 2423.07

(100/x)*x=(2423.07/1815.77)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=1.3344586594117*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (1.3344586594117) to get x
100/1.3344586594117=x
74.93675378755=x
x=74.93675378755

now we have:
