5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=20447.4
2) x%=19456.9
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%=20447.4/19456.9
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 19456.9 is what percent of 20447.4
