5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=6471.45
2) x%=2140.52
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%=6471.45/2140.52
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2140.52 is what percent of 6471.45
