5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=8017.98
2) x%=1877.11
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%=8017.98/1877.11
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 1877.11 is what percent of 8017.98
