5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=46920
2) x%=2235.14
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%=46920/2235.14
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 2235.14 is what percent of 46920
