5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=9545.5
2) x%=1851.33
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%=9545.5/1851.33
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1851.33 is what percent of 9545.5
